Bulk Email Auto Send method
Hi
We have a new customer, and one of their requirements is when we despatch an order, we send an email confirmation, customised to their requirements (order number, tracking link etc) built around some static text
I have developed something (albeit in VB6) and it works sending an email to me, fine. The problem is that the customer has not received it. I suspect this may be because of a spam trap somewhere.
The currently system is a scheduled task using CDO, and also spoofs their email address. The main code is as follows:
With objNewMail
.From = "yyy@xx.com"
'.To = "xxx@yyy.com"
.To = objRS("EMAIL")
.Cc = "xxx@yyy.com"
.Body = strEmail
.Subject = "Company Order Despatched"
.Importance = 1
.Send
End With
What i need to do, is either make this spam proof, or find an alternative. Is there a better method, or even a dedicated program that will do what i need it to?
Many thanks for your help

hi
am not familiar with what SPF is to be honest.
At the moment, i can send the email and receive it myself (just by setting the objMail.From = any address) but can't get it to be received by them
