Important - Please Read

To be able to use the Mailing List application you need to have either CDONTS, CDOSYS, W3 JMail, Persists AspEmail, or SeverObject AspMail component installed on the web server.

Check with your web hosts as to which they have installed, free web hosts usually don't have any installed.

  • Windows Win2k, Win XP Pro and Win2003 users - CDOSYS comes installed on Windows 2000, Windows XP Pro, and Windows 2003.

  • Windows NT4 and Win2k users - IIS 4 and 5 on NT4 and Win2k installs the CDONTS email component by default, but you need the SMTP server that comes with IIS installed on the web server as well (This is the email component that most web hosts will use).

  • Windows 9x users - Windows 9x does not support the CDOSYS or CDONTS email components so if you enable this feature and try to test it on a Windows 9x system the Mailing List will crash!!
The personal version of the JMail email component is free and can run under Win98, NT4, Win2k, Win XP, and Win2003, but you must install the component on the web server and requires that you enter the address of a working SMTP server.

If you find that you can not send emails, you may have the incorrect settings, check with your hosting company as to the correct settings. Some web hosts don't allow the sending of emails to non local email addresses.

Outgoing SMTP Server Authentication
Some web hosts now require that you use authentication to login to outgoing SMTP Servers to prevent spammers from abusing the servers. The following list tells you which supported components allow SMTP Server Authentication:-
  • CDOSYS - SMTP Server Authentication supported
  • CDONTS - SMTP Server Authentication not supported
  • JMail - SMTP Server Authentication not supported
  • Jmail ver.4+ - SMTP Server Authentication supported
  • AspEmail - SMTP Server Authentication supported
  • AspMail - SMTP Server Authentication not supported

Email Component Setup
Email Component to use:
You must have the component you select installed on the web server, check with your web host on which they have. Usually none are available with free web hosting.
Outgoing SMTP Mail Server (NOT needed for CDONTS):
You only need this if you are using an email component other than CDONTS. It must be a working mail server or the application will crash. If you can use a 'localhost' SMTP server as less time will be required connecting to the SMTP server and emails will be sent faster.

(eg. mail.myweb.com)
Outgoing SMTP Mail Server Username
If the outgoing SMTP Server you are using requires username authentication then specify it here.
Please see the list above for email components that support authentication.
Outgoing SMTP Mail Server Password
If the outgoing SMTP Server you are using requires password authentication then specify it here.
Please see the list above for email components that support authentication.
