multi page form to email.

[mmac]

I have been investigating how to create a multi page form in Frontpage that
eventually will allow an emailed result. I can write the asp to "post" from one
page to the next easily enough but when it comes to the last page, I can't
figure out how to email the results. the syntax "response.write" will write to a
web page but it won't fill in the content of am email. I thought of putting the
"response.write" inside the body of a CDO.message but that leads to the next
question...
While looking at threads about the subject I keep seeing that I should use
CDO (or CDONTS) or a third party app like aspmail. All of which, from what I can
gather, use IIS SMTP service to function.
The problem I will have is that I have Exchange 5.5 on the same machine so
the SMTP on IIS won't start since ex5.5 uses that port. I have ex2k on another
machine that I will soon move the users over to so that will free up the IIS
port but I would prefer using the new mail server for this when it is running.
Is there a method for using the ex5.5/ex2k mail system for sending the asp
generated email? or perhaps another technique? I would prefer to just write it
but if I have to buy something I will.
help?

You could use a third-party SMTP component for ASP, but they need to be
registered on the server and that can be a problem sometimes. If you're
willing to delve into ASP.Net there are lots of ASP.Net SMTP components that
can be used. .Net components don't require the registering that COM
components (and regular ASP components) do. There are some free ASP.Net SMTP
components at sourceforge, such as this one:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/opensmtp-net/ that can use non IIS SMTP
servers.

Hope this helps,
