				first things first...do asp pages work at all?
 
 
Create a standard HTML page, name it hello.asp
 
 
In the <body> section add this line:
 
 
<%= "Hello World!" %>
 
 
Save it, and open in from your webserver. if you see "Hello World" you should be able to send email via ASP - if you know how to do it.
 
 
Here's a link to send mail via ASP (there are plent of other tutorilas out there):

Keep in mind that you'll probably need an email server in order to send the mail; so something like LanSuite from Software602 may do the trick. _________________ ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
