Posted on 08.05.09 23:32:47 by Ariel G. Saputra in Classic ASP
There are several email components for classic asp available out there, if you not sure about which components are installed in your server, just ask your technical support. CDOsys is the default email component for microsoft SMTP server running together with IIS Web Server, or CDONT for prior SMTP version but mostly hosting providers also install commercial email component like ASPEmail, JMail, MailEnable etc.
Below are some samples of scripts to send an email with Classic ASP:
