CDONTS on server without SMTP

[atmcquillen]

Hi

Just come across using CDONTS to send email from an ASP script - all seems good, but my script does not currently work as SMTP is not set up on the server that the script runs on.

Company has a dedicated SMTP server - is there any way of passing the message to this server to send, or will I have to persuade someone to set up SMTP on the other server?

Any ideas gratefully received...

Andy

why not use a third party component to send the email for you?

you can specify the SMTP server to use with a 3rd party com object, and there are a couple free ones out there.

I don't know if these are free, but here's a start:
