[Resolved] send HTML Email

[vbcodec]

hi ppl
anyone can point me to a sample code that can prepare html email in mime encode or any popular encoding (I don't know) with attachments such as jpg, gif or swf...

Thanks.

from what location will you want to send the email from (Stand-Alone or ASP). Will it be sent from a server or client desktop? Do you have an email server or comp. to asssit in this?

There are many examples in this forum for all types mentioned, and for those not mentioned, just search for them.

Don't know about the encryption but I know how you could send HTML e-mails (Instead of plain text).
Use the Winsock control to connect to the SMTP server. Send this...

Helo SomeName
Mail from:[email protected]
Rcpt to:[email protected]
Data
Content-type: text/html
Charset=us-ascii
YourMessge
.
Quit

Or something Like that...

johnweidauer,
it will be a simple application that will go to tray or run as a service on one pc which will connect to smtp server, but at next step it can be mail server itselt.

I didn't really meant to be encrypted but it's coding I believe is called MIME which is used for email format (to my knowledge). and how do I attach files such as images or swf or attachment?

thanks

this is kind of the same scenario you are dealing with.

The attached file has a sample project and the DLL source for sending email and allows for encoding, html email, requesting receipts, etc. I think I got it from vbaccelerator.com
