| Hello again... a few questions | REPLY |

Hi.
I really like your script. It's simple and fast.
I do have a few questions though:
Where is the list of users saved?
Where can I find the referer and can I change or disable it?
This is because I'm on a dynamic connection and when I create a new account I will only receive the messages for accounts having the same domain as the internet connection I use.
Example: my ip is 33.33.33.33 and lets say it's with company www.myconnections.com
It seems I can only send to emails having the ...@myconnections.com like me@myconnections.com.
So would the referer have something to do with this?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Richard

The list is saved in table member of MS Access database enotik.mdb

The board does not store referer information.
However, it is possible to send email from multiple domain names using SERVER_NAME HTTP environment variable.
To make it work with the board you have to modify board_register.asp, make line 96 look something like:
mail.From = "board@" & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")
Also, you have to do something similar on line 51 in board_forgot.asp

Where do I find the "SERVER_NAME HTTP environment variable"?
And do I copy the 'mail.From... ' line above and paste it as is? Or do I replace the 'board@' with my email prefixe?
And do I change the 'SERVER_NAME' with my smtp server name?
Or do I just enter the server name where I'll find the server variables?
Thanks,
Ryl

Richard,
You can read about Environment Variables (including SERVER_NAME) at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/iisre
f/html/psdk/asp/vbob5vsj.asp
The NewMail object used by the board from CDONTS Library. Details at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cdo/h
tml/_denali_newmail_object_cdonts_library_.asp
To get domain name as it appears in the client browser window you have to use SERVER_NAME Environment Variable that can be obtained by executing following command: Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME"). Then you have to append existing email account name with '@' sign at the end to the beggining of the server name, the resulting string should look like "board@yourdomainname.com".
To simplify debugging of the task - copy the send email part into the new asp page. Then make your changes and test it. If the test script will not send email with values that you sure should work - then the problem might be due to one of the following reasons: 1) CDONTS library is not installed; 2) SMTP server is not configured to allow sending emails by internet guest account.
Have fun,
Dmitri.
