I need to send hundreds of newsletters, but would like to check first if email exists on server. It's called smtp validation, at least i think so, based on my research on net. There's several libraries that can do that, and also a page with open-source code in asp (http://www.coveryourasp.com/ValidateEmail.asp#Result3), but I have hard t...
I'd like my program to be able to email me error reports. How can I do this without hard-coding a username/password/SMTP server/etc. into the code? (Doing so would allow users to decompile the program and take over this email account.) I've been told you could do some stuff with telneting to port 25, but I'm very fuzzy on the details. M...
I just requested a hotfix from support.microsoft.com and put in my email address, but I haven't received the email yet. The splash page I got after I requested the hotfix said: Hotfix Confirmation We will send these hotfixes to the following e-mail address: (my correct email address) Usually, our hotfix e-mail is deliver...
Instead of relying on my host to send email, I was thinking of sending the messages though my gmail account. The emails are personalized emails to the bands I play on my show. Has anyone had success doing this? ...
For the past few weeks, I've been trying to learn about just how email works. I understand the process of a client receiving mail from a server using POP pretty well. I also understand how a client computer can use SMTP to ask an SMTP server to send a message. However, I'm still missing something... The way I understand it, outgoing ...
This question comes on the heels of the question asked here. The email that comes from our web server comes from an IP address that is different than that for the Exchange server. Is this okay if the SPF and Domain keys are setup properly? ...
Working on a little side project web app... I'd like to have it set up so that, when users send email to a certain account, I can kick off a php script that reads the email, pulls out some key info, and writes it to a database. What's the best way to do this? A cron job that checks for new email? The app is running on a "Dedicated-Vir...
Hi All, I'm working on an email solution in SQL Server ONLY that will use Database Mail to send out HTML formatted emails. The catch is that the images in the HTML need to be embedded in the outgoing email. This wouldn't be a problem if I were using a .net app to generate & send the emails but, unfortunately, all I have is SQL Server. ...
In my PHP webapp, I want to be notified via email whenever certain errors occur. I'd like to use my Gmail account for sending these. How could this be done? ...
I would like to quickly send email from the command line. I realize there are probably a number of different ways to do this. I'm looking for a simple way to do this from a linux terminal (likely a bash shell but anything should do) and an alternative way to do this on Windows. I want to be able to whip up an email right on the comman...
I've gone back and forth between having an organized inbox and having an inbox with absolutely everything I've received in it. Would you recommend leaving everything in an inbox, or organize it? If you organize it, is there any method to your madness or possibly an Outlook (2003) plug-in to aid in this task? For what it's worth, I f...
I need to query an Exchange server to find all messages having a certain value in PR_SEARCH_KEY. Do I have to open every mailbox and iterate through it or is there a faster solution? Edit: This is for a program that needs to prepend something to the subject line of all copies of a message I got through a journal mailbox. ...
Do you attach the images? Use absolute urls? How do you best avoid getting flagged as spam? ...
What's the best way to validate an email address in Javascript? Though this solution may be simple, I'm sure this is one of those useful things that people will be Googling for and deserves its own entry on the site ...
Is there a way to use JQuery to cloak or encrypt email addresses on an HTML page without changing the syntax in the HREF? ...
Using the obsolete System.Web.Mail sending email works fine, here's the code snippet: Public Shared Sub send(ByVal recipent As String, ByVal from As String, ByVal subject As String, ByVal body As String) Try Dim Message As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage Message.To = recipen...
Sending a message from the Unix command line using mail TO_ADDR results in an email from $USER@$HOSTNAME. Is there a way to change the "From:" address inserted by mail? For the record, I'm using GNU Mailutils 1.1/1.2 on Ubuntu (but I've seen the same behavior with Fedora and RHEL). [EDIT] $ mail -s Testing [email protected] ...
There are lots of PHP articles about the subject so is this a PHP only problem. I am sending emails using System.Net.Mail after some regular expression checks of course. Similar to http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/12/10/432854.aspx ...
I'm working with a snippet of code that recursively calls itself and tries to pull out a mime type part of "text/html" from an email (if it exists) for further processing. The "text/html" could exist inside other content such as "multipart/alternative" so I'm trying to find out if there is a defined hierarchy for email mime types. Anybod...
We've got a scenario that requires us to parse lots of e-mail (plain text), each e-mail 'type' is the result of a script being run against various platforms. Some are tab delimited, some are space delimited, some we simply don't know yet. We'll need to support more 'formats' in the future too. Do we go for a solution using: Regex Sim...
