How to know email sent or not when use CDONTS?

[stranger123]

Hi,

I want to send emails by myEmail@account2.com when myEmail@account1.com is down something like:

set objCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objCDO.From = "myEmail@account1.com"
......
objCDO.Send
If not success Then 'How to know not success??
objCDO.From = "myEmail@account2.com"
......
objCDO.Send
End If
set objCDO = Nothing

Any idea?

The CDO will just drop a text file in the \queue folder... the SMTP service polls this folder for new files... when it finds one it sends an email... if it fails it will eventually end up in the \badmail

Thank you for your help.
The IIS in a server that is not my server, what I can do in my ASP code?

Sheco,

I don't understqand: the SMTP service find a new file and sends it by the SMTP itself or by my email account?
If the delivary is by the SMTP only, the email will be send even when my email account is down. objCDO.From = "myEmail@account1.com"
is just for the receiver to reply?
