Which service is used to send CDO mail. 2

[JonMa]

Please Help.
We are using windows 2000 professional and use CDO to send mail. I thought there should be SMTP service to control mail like I have at home on windows xp, but there is none.
1. Does anyone know which SERVICE is used to send mail by CreateObject("CDO.Message").
2. Not important but do you also know where the delay for sending messages can be found.

Thank you for any help.
Sometimes the mail stops and we do not know how to control it unless we make a reboot of the machine.

Regards Jon.

You specify a smtp server in your cdo configuration. So cdo basically forwards emails to another smtp site. You can try restarting the IIS service rather than rebooting next time.

Hello again.
Thank you Claudek for the answer.
The funny thing is that no IIS service og SMTP service is running.
We do not have any connection to another server so I am not quite sure what you mean by forwarding emails to another smtp site. Could there be a SMTP service hidden in some other service ? I can see we have a service called MESSENGER, could it be that one ?
Thanks.
Jon.

The name of the service is Internet Information Services

Nearest I can see from that list is Application Management AsP,NET State Service

CDO uses ASP, o rather is a component in ASP. I assumed IIS by default resulting in my last replies.

Try restarting that service and seeing how it goes.

Thank you for your help Claudius.
It was'nt Application Management AsP,NET State Service so I will have to take som time to think it over. Anyway you have told me about IIS and SMTP and that is what I've also found when searching the internet.
Thanks again.
Jon.

CDO itself does not use a service - it is a COM object.

CDO needs either an internal SMTP server or an external server running on the network to relay the E-Mail.

What you say does not add up - no SMTP service running on the system and no SMTP server available on your network?

post the CDO part of your script

Hello Sunny4ever.
Glad for your answer.
Here is the script.
Thanks Jon.

Dim MyMail
set args = WScript.Arguments
if args.Count < 2 then WScript.Quit (99)
mottaker = args(0)
rapportfil = args(1)
for I = 2 to args.Count-1
melding = melding & args(I) & " "
next
fra = "name@company.no"
Set MyMail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
MyMail.From = fra
MyMail.To = mottaker
'MyMail.Cc = fra
MyMail.Subject = melding
MyMail.TextBody = "Vennligst se vedlegget for nærmere informasjon."
MyMail.AddAttachment rapportfil 'Hele path
MyMail.Fields("urn:schemas:httpmail:importance").Value = 2
MyMail.Fields.Update()
on error resume next
MyMail.Send()
if not err.Number=0 then err.clear
Set MyMail = Nothing
WScript.Quit (0)
