asked on

sending mail from asp webpages

We have a linux mailserver on which sendmai is installed. I have to develop a online web-based form/pages in asp(windows 2000 and above), where in, i have to send mails to accounts residing on the linux mail server. I have tried directly giving the mailto command, but i am not able to send emails.

kindly help me in letting me know how to send mails programmaticaly to linux mail serve from intranet. The program i am developing, will be used on intranet. I am using IIS to host the webpages on my machine. The linux mail server has a public and private IP. We also have a squid proxy on linux server for internet web browsing. what information , should i have to gather from our staff, who are maintaining this linux based mail server.


thanks all for sparing their valuable time

regards

sk

Are you trying to send the mail from the ASP page?  If hosted in IIS I would assume you would use CDONTS or ASPMAIL or some component to send the mail from the asp script and set the smtp server to your sendmail server.    I have not worked with sendmail on linux but that might get you headed in the right direction.
