automatic mail when a page is downloaded

Hi,

Can someone please help me with the sample code, to automatically send a mail to say lucky@yahoo.com, when some software is downloaded from my webpage ?

There will be a download link in my webpage, and when a user downloads the software, i have to get a mail indication automatically with from the user's mail configured on the machine.

Thanks,
Lucky

apresto

<%
Set myMail=CreateObject("CDO.Message")
myMail.Subject="Sending email with CDO"
myMail.From=username 'This is a variable
myMail.To="Lucky@yahoo.com"
myMail.TextBody="You message."
myMail.Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing")=2
myMail.Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") ="smtp.server.com" 'Name or IP of remote SMTP server
myMail.Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") =25 'Server port
myMail.Configuration.Fields.Update
%>

...

<a href="file.exe" onclick="<%=myMail.Send%>">

The above is how to csend a mail from an ASP page using CDO

CDO is used for win 2000 or later, CDONTS is used for WinNT. Im not too sure about the link though, not sure if that will send but where code is there, to send mail all you need to do is execute the myMail.send object
