How to use ASP Mail Component



ASP Mail is an Active Server Component designed to send e-mail from an Active Server Page. This component is installed on our servers.

Below is a sample Asp script that use Asp Mail component to send the feedback form information back to your desired e-mail address.

You can edit the following script to your requirements.

Script : forminfo.asp
<% @LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head> 
<body> 
 

<% 

Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")      'create an Asp mail component.
Mail.FromName   = "1&1 Test"
Mail.FromAddress= Request.Form("email")
Mail.RemoteHost = "mrvnet.kundenserver.de"          ' The mail server you have to use with Asp Mail
Mail.AddRecipient "Your Name", "support@1and1.co.uk"
Mail.Subject    = "Website - Info Request"
Mail.BodyText   = Request.Form("Info")
if Mail.SendMail then
  Response.Write "Your mail has already been sent..."
else
  Response.Write "Mail send failure. Error was " & Mail.Response
end if 
Set Mail = Nothing
%> 


</body>

</html>


You will then need to create a form to use this script.

Script : info.html (Feedback Form)
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>
<title>ASP Mail Test page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body background="" >
 
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center">
  <tr class="medium">
    <td width="54%" align="center" valign="top">
     <form onSubmit="return ValidateForm()" name="form1" method="post" action="forminfo.asp">
        <p class="fancycentre" align="left">Email Address
          <input name="email" type="text" id="email" size="41"></p>
        <p class="fancycentre" align="left">&nbsp;</p>
        <p class="fancycentre" align="left">Please enter your comment below:</p>
        <p class="fancycentre" align="left"><br>         
          <textarea name="info" cols="35" rows="10" id="textarea3"></textarea></p>
        <p class="fancycentre" align="left">
<input class="fancybut" type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit Form">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input class="fancybut" type="reset" name="Submit2" value="Reset Form"></p>
      </form></td>
    <td width="16%" align="right" valign="top"></td>
  </tr>
  </table>
</body>
</html>
