Sending email from web

[bkagan98]

Hello,

I read all previous postings about sending emails from .net and I am trying to create simple request submission form and keep getting an error: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Try this code


<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<script runat="server">
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim mailMessage As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
mailMessage.From = "you@yourdomainname.com"
mailMessage.To = "someone@somewhere.com"
mailMessage.Subject = "This is a sample mail sent from ASP.net Mail Component"
mailMessage.BodyFormat = System.Web.Mail.MailFormat.Text
mailMessage.body = "Congratulation" & VbCrLf & "If you receive this is, your mail component works"
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mailMessage)
lblMessage.text = "Mail Sent"
End Sub
</script>

You won't need that, that was a mistake.

I use practically the same code, but is in C#.
Any idea how to implement the "Handles MyBase.Load" in C# ?
thanks !

This component works great. But can anyone tell me why it sends two duplicate messages? Much thanks.

Sure, I've added the email component as a sub procedure to alert me with an email ONLY when a new person registers (I'm using a cookie). I'm getting one blank email for when the page loads, then one for when the new info is entered. Thanks for your help

Sub AddNewFanEmail(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim FanEmail as String = txtEmailAddress.Text
If CheckFanEmailAddresses(FanEmail) = false Then
Dim mailMessage As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
mailMessage.From = "anyone@anywhere.net"
mailMessage.To = "scott.coulson@snet.net"
mailMessage.Subject = "This is an email"
mailMessage.BodyFormat = System.Web.Mail.MailFormat.Text
mailMessage.body = "The person's email is " & txtEmailAddress.text
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mailMessage)
End If

End Sub

Not sure about this, but I'd bet that removing "Handles MyBase.Load" from your AddNewFanEmail method will solve the problem.

Where in your code are you calling AddNewFanEMail?

[housetouror]

I got rid of the "Handles MyBase.Load" but it just disabled the component and I get no email sent. The Sub AddNewFanEmail was actually something I accidentally left while expiramenting. I changed it back to Private Sub Page_Load, but it makes absolutely no difference to the email component. Still get two messages.

The component code currently reads as follows:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim FanEmail as String = txtEmailAddress.Text
If CheckFanEmailAddresses(FanEmail) = false Then
Dim mailMessage As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
mailMessage.From = "anyone@anywhere.net"
mailMessage.To = "scott@mapleleafmortgage.net"
mailMessage.Subject = "This is an email"
mailMessage.BodyFormat = System.Web.Mail.MailFormat.Text
mailMessage.body = "The person's email is " & txtEmailAddress.text
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mailMessage)
End If

End Sub

Thanks to you all.

I am having a similar problem using CDO with ASP. I get 3 duplicate emails. Did you ever resolve this problem?

[steurm]

Is it possible that the procedure is called in the page_load event ? I presume that the mail should be sent after clicking a button, so try to put the procedure after a
[quote]if(Page.IsPostback)
{
...
}</CODE>
