Simple Form Problem!

[Benny Alexander]

Hi,

I am using a simple form 2 email program. I ama experienced programmer, But
I feel very bad, as I am unable to fix this problem.

All seems to be fine, But the mail is not reacing to my mail box. Here is
the code!

The form has just three values!

<%

name = request.form("name")
email = request.form("email")
message = request.form("message")

If name="" or email="" or message="" Then
url = "contact.asp?reqd=* indicates required field&name=" & name & "&email="
& email & "&message=" & message
If name="" Then
url = url & "&mname=*"
End if

If email="" Then
url = url & "&memail=*"
End if

If message="" Then
url = url & "&mmessage=*"
End if


response.redirect url & "&foobar=foobar#form"
response.end
End if


Dim objCDONTS ' Email object
Dim strFromName ' From persons' real name
Dim strFromEmail, strToEmail ' Email addresses
Dim strSubject, strBody ' Message
Dim misccompo


strSubject = "Enquiry from Centwinmills.com website FORM"
strFromName = Trim(Request.Form("name"))
strFromEmail = Trim(Request.Form("email"))
strToEmail = "(e-mail address removed)"
strBody = Trim(Request.Form("message"))

Set objCDONTS = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objCDONTS.From = strFromName & " <" &
strFromEmail & ">"
objCDONTS.To = strToEmail
objCDONTS.Subject = strSubject
objCDONTS.Body = "--------------------------------------" &
vbcrlf & vbcrlf & strbody & vbcrlf & vbcrlf & vbcrlf &
"--------------------------------------------------------------" & vbcrlf &
"MESSAGE ENDS: End of message"
objCDONTS.Send
Set objCDONTS = Nothing

response.redirect "thanks.asp"
response.end
%>

On the webserver, is the mail ending up in the badmail directory?

Cheers

Hen,

I do not know how to find it? I am in a shared hosting!

regards,
Benny

You'll need to ask your ISP.

One thing to be aware of - the From: domain needs to be resolvable in the
DNS. If the From: address contains a non-existant domain, then your mail
will not be delivered by the MS SMTP server. So, when testing this page,
make sure that the From: address you put in has a valid domain.

Otherwise, just looking quickly over your code, it seems fine.

Cheers
Ken

Ken

Thanks for the advice.

I check from my local webserver too. Its all bounced back to my bad mail
folder.

How would I do a valid domain config? Can you advice more?

Regards,
Benny

 

[Ken Schaefer]

Well, the From: address needs to be a valid domain...

So, for example, you could try:

(e-mail address removed)

since hotmail.com is a valid domain (the SMTP server doesn't check the
actual account, just the domain). Also, you'll need to be connected to the
'Net when you do this (so that the SMTP server can go out and check that
hotmail.com actually exists)

Cheers
Ken
