POP Account

HOW TO CONFIGURE YOUR POP3 MAIL CLIENTS (http://www.yourdomain.com:8383)
Whatever mail client you use, and there are a lot of them, there is some basic information that will remain the same.

There is a server configuration section (IE, Netscape, Eudora, Exchange, Outlook...) that includes:
   1)Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server : mail.yourdomain.com or smtp.YourIsp.net
   2)Incoming Mail (POP3) Server : mail.yourdomain.com
   3)POP3 Username: root@yourdomain.com
     For Eudora/Netscape Mail the username may: root (dedicated IP) or
     root&yourdomain
   4)POP3 Password: Your Password

You can manage POP3, Aliasing or Mailinglist Email when you log on your account using root users, including: Email Filter, Web Based Email permission, Quota, Vacation reply etc.

JMail Component. (do not use CDONT componet, it's disable by our IMAIL Server Configuration)

Pretend you have a form with the following syntax:

<html>
<head>
<title>Contact Form</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="mailform.asp">

Nama : <input type="text" size="25" name="name"><br>
Email : <input type="text" size="25" name="email"><br>
To : <input type="text" size="25" name="recipient"><br>

Comment:
<textarea name="body" cols="40" rows="15" wrap="PHYSICAL">
</textarea>

<input type="submit" value=" Submit ">
</form>
</body>

The following basic format for your mailform.asp will be as follow:

<html>
<head>
<title>Confirmation</title>
</head>
<body>
<%

Set JMail = Server.CreateObject("JMail.SMTPMail")

' This is your SMTP server
JMail.ServerAddress = "mail.yourdomain.com:25"

' This is me....
JMail.Sender = "yourname@yourdomain"
JMail.Subject = "Here you go..."

' Get the recipients mailbox from a form (note the lack of a equal sign).
JMail.AddRecipient Request.Form("recipient")

JMail.Priority = 1

JMail.body = "The form was filled out with the following values:" & vbcrlf

Dim el
'add every form element and its value to the email
FOR EACH el IN Request.Form
JMail.appendtext( el & ": " & Request.form(el) & vbcrlf )
NEXT

' Send it...
JMail.Execute

%>
<center>
An e-mail has been sent to mailbox (<%=request.form("recipient")%>).
</center>
</body>
</html>

Response.Write(intCount & " file(s) uploaded.")
%>
</BODY>

DATABASE (DSN and DSNless)

Upload your Access DB under your /data directory, then contact Support if you need DSN for your database.

DSNLess Method:

Create a connection object like usual:

Dim objConn Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

Then, instead of using a connection string like DSN=pubs or
DRIVER={MS SQL-Server};UID=sa;PWD=;DATABASE=pubs;SERVER=myMachine, use the following connection string:

objConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=ProviderName; Data Source=DatabaseSource; Initial Catalog=DatabaseName; User ID=UserID; Password=Password"

For MS SQL Server Database:
ProviderName = SQLOLEDB
Data Source = Server Name
Initial Catalog = Database Name

For Access Database:
ProviderName = Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0
Data Source = Full path to .MDB file
