Form Processing Using ASP

[gday]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone might have the answer to my question. I'm wondering how to write an asp file that will process the text information in my form so that it is formatted a particular way, and then have the asp page
e-mail it to myself. I don't want to use the unsecure "mailto:" tag in the form's html itself, and I don't know how to write cgi scripts.

Any advice?

Thanks

In order to mail in ASP you need to know which mail program your ISP is using.
Mine uses Persits
Others us CDONTS

For Persits here is a VBScript ASP snippet

<% ' Email results to poster
Set Mail2 = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Persits.MailSender&quot
Mail2.Host = &quot;smtp.yoursite.com&quot; ' Specify a valid SMTP server
Mail2.From = Email_of_Poster ' Specify sender's address
Mail2.FromName = Name_of_Poster ' Specify sender's name

Mail2.AddAddress &quot;someone@yoursite.com&quot;


Mail2.Subject = &quot;Reply form your Site&quot;
msg = Name_of_submitter &amp; &quot; has posted a response to your &quot; &amp;

Subject_of_Current_Post
Mail2.Body = msg
On Error Resume Next
Mail2.Send
If Err <> 0 Then
Response.Write &quot;Error encountered: &quot; &amp; Err.Description
End If
%>

There are several components that enable you to do this. You may already have one, if you have an SMTP server installed alongside IIS - it's called CDONTS. Here is the documentation and an article for CDONTS:

There are also several other components available (if I missed any, let us know)
