    Hi ,
    My simple code to send mail is this
    
    
    <%
    sch = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/" 
     
        Set cdoConfig = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration") 
     
        With cdoConfig.Fields 
            .Item(sch & "sendusing") = 2 ' cdoSendUsingPort 
            .Item(sch & "smtpserver") = "<enter_mail.server_here>" 
            .update 
        End With 
     
        Set cdoMessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message") 
     
        With cdoMessage 
            Set .Configuration = cdoConfig 
            .From = "rag84dec@gmail.com" 
            .To = "rag84dec@gmail.com" 
            .Subject = "Sample CDO Message" 
            .TextBody = "This is a test for CDO.message" 
            .Send 
        End With 
     
        Set cdoMessage = Nothing 
        Set cdoConfig = Nothing 
    
    					
    					%>
    
    Code (markup):

    But it is giving me an error
    
    Error Type:
    CDO.Message.1 (0x80040213)
    The transport failed to connect to the server. 
    /testmail.asp, line 21

    hi rag,

    You need a way to give them your password, and connect to gmail smtpserver.

    Try something like
    
    Dim SmtpServer As New SmtpClient()
    SmtpServer.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("rag84dec@gmail.com", "###RAG84's PASSWORD###")
    SmtpServer.Port = 587
    SmtpServer.Host = "smtp.gmail.com"
    SmtpServer.EnableSsl = True
    
    Code (markup):
    there might be a way to do that with your ".item" - i've never done it that way though

    then maybe something like this

    
    Dim mail As New MailMessage()
    mail = New MailMEssage()
    mail.From =  New MailAddress("rag84dec@gmail.com","rag",System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)
    mail.To = "rag84dec@gmail.com" 
    mail.Subject = "hihihi subject" 
    mail.TextBody = "This is a test message" 
    
    Code (markup):
    sorry if its a bit sloppy i dont do VB code

    Ideally there would be some try/catch magic in there, and maybe some delivery/replyTo stuff as well...

    Hope that helps!
    Peace.

    hmmmm CDO......
    Pardon my previous c0de (though i think it would work)

    This is more inline with the code you posted:

    
    .Item(sch & "sendusing") = 2
    .Item(sch & "smtpserver") = "smtp.gmail.com" 
    .Item(sch & "smtpserverport") = ???//Something need to go here and im not sure what
    .Item(sch & "smtpauthenticate") = 1
    .Item(sch & "sendusername") = "mymail@gmail.com"
    .Item(sch & "sendpassword") =  "mypassword"
    .Item(sch & "smtpusessl") = 1
    .Update
    
    Code (markup):
    I dont know which port to use.... 465?

    In any case i think this might be more the type of thing you want.

    Cheers m8

    I just wrote this and successfully sent myself a message:

    
            MailMessage mailItem = new MailMessage();
            mailItem.To = "me@gmail.com";
            mailItem.Subject = "hi this is a test";
            mailItem.From = "me@gmail.com";
            mailItem.Body = "hi this is a test message";
            SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.gmail.com";
            mailItem.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport", 465);
            mailItem.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate", 1);
            mailItem.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername", "me@gmail.com");
            mailItem.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword", "myPassword");
            mailItem.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl", "true");
            SmtpMail.Send(mailItem);
    
    Code (markup):
    try maybe adding:
    
    .Item(sch & "smtpusessl") =  true //(or "true"? or 1?)
    
    Code (markup):
    let me know if that works for you

    goodluck

    here is a simple solution in ASP. you can find fields of old form using request("formfield")
