System.Web.Mail and Pickup Directory

Hi,

I am not too sure how to send email with System.Web.Mail using Pickup
directory.
The following is what I have

=============== =============== =============== =======
eMail = new MailMessage()
eMail.BodyForma t = MailFormat.Text
eMail.To = "re********@hot mail.com"
eMail.From = _SendFrom
eMail.Body = _Body
eMail.Fields("h ttp://schemas.microso ft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") =
"1
eMail.Fields("h ttp://schemas.microso ft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverpicku pdirectory")= "C:\Inetpub\mai lroot\Pickup"

SmtpMail.SmtpSe rver = "localhost"
SmtpMail.Send(e Mail)
=============== =============== =============== ======

Also, do I have to specify SmtpMail.SmtpSe rver if I am only using the pickup
directory?

Hi,

I think your code is right, If we directly using the pickup directory to
send email via System.Web.Mail ( or CDO component), only the sending method
and pickup directory path is required, we don't need to specify the
smtpSErver. Here is a certain kb article mentioned how to use pickup
directory to send mail via CDO.
But since the .net's System.Web.Mail is underlying using CDO, it'll be the
same for system.web.mail

Pickup Directory

Hope also helps. Thanks.

Shouldn't this code do it on a Win2k3 box. Set oMsg = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message") oMsg.From = "address@domain.com" oMsg.To = "address@domain.com" oMsg.Subject = "Subject" oMsg.Body = "Body" oMsg.BodyFormat = 1 '1=Text, 0=HTML oMsg.MailFormat = 1 '1=Text, 0=MIME

Hi there, I can't seem to find any info on this error message that's generated when sending email with CDO: "The pickup directory path is required and was not specified" Does anyone know whether the cdoSMTPServerPickupDirectory field of the Message object defaults and whether it's normal to have to set this value explicitly. My W2K workstations and servers function OK without this

I am using MailMessage (CDOSYS) to send emails. I would like to turn off the SMTP service (it's on the local machine) and look at the emails in the pickup folder before they get sent out. However, since it is connecting using the port, I will get an error if I turn off the SMTP service. I need to configure it so that it writes the emails to the pickup folder. I've done quite a bit of digging, and found some references to...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
