Here's a good example of sending an e-mail via CDO on the MSDN site:

Here's a link to the CDO library reference:

That's the source, though here's a nice example from w3schools.com:

I tried using it and I get an error and quickie help?

CDO.Message.1 error '80040220'
The "SendUsing" configuration value is invalid.
/toolsprocesses/smartreq_write.asp, line 70
It tells me one of the http://scemas is bad?

''*****************************

Don't mees with the configursation:

 
Dim iMsg

iMsg.To = "david.eichler@eds.com, Matt.Pinkston@eds.com"

iMsg.Send
 
 

Still getting

CDO.Message.1 error '80040220'

The "SendUsing" configuration value is invalid.

/toolsprocesses/smartreq_write.asp, line 79

Same problem:

https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/20970763/Problem-with-CDONTS-ERROR-The-SendUsing-configuration-value-is-invalid.html?query=The+"SendUsing"+configuration+value+is+invalid.&clearTAFilter=true

All I need is a place that has doc saying what I need to specify all parameters.  My CDONTs worked fine but I got moved to a new server and it is no longer supported.

We've provided you plenty of documents and links.  Sounds like the problem is you host, and you should contact them...

strage, but... if you tell CDOSYS sendusing = 1 (local smtp) why set the SMTPServer to "m0551uspln2.clienteds.extad.eds.com"?

should be localhost or 127.0.0.1 if you need to set it at last?

oh, and you have to tell the iMsg Object to use the iConf Object:
"iMsg.Configuration = iConf" or "SET iMsg.Configuration = iConf"

BTW, you don't necessarily need to specify port 25 exactly with CDO. The assumption that's made when setting "sendusing" to 2 (network) is that port 25 will be used automatically, so you needn't specify. You only need to provide the transport method 1 = sendUsingPickupDirectory, 2 = sendUsingNetwork.
