Hi guys. i have made a registering form page and i would like to send automatically to the new user a confirmation mail. i have seen the excellent tutorial on the website :
www.hiran.desilva.com/ultradev/

Unfortunately there is not cover how to send automatically a email confirmation from a local smtp server with iis (cdont). Does anybody has an idea. i include my registering form page code and my confirm registering page code below.

REGISTERING FORM PAGE :

&lt;%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%&gt;
&lt;% Session("svUsername" = Request.Form("Username" %&gt;
&lt;!--#include file="Connections/serge.asp" --&gt;

MM_editAction = MM_editAction & "?" & Request.QueryString
End If

' boolean to abort record edit

' query string to execute
MM_editQuery = ""
%&gt;
&lt;%
' *** Redirect if username exists

&lt;p&gt;Congratulation, &lt;%=(RssubmitConfirm.Fields.Item("Firstname".Value)%&gt; &lt;%=(RssubmitConfirm.Fields.Item("Lastname".Value)%&gt; you have registered successfully !!!! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your Username is &lt;%=(RssubmitConfirm.Fields.Item("Username".Value)%&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Your Password is &lt;%=(RssubmitConfirm.Fields.Item("Password".Value)%&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are now a registered member.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
&lt;%
RssubmitConfirm.Close()
%&gt;


Needless to say that i have created all of this with Dreamweaver Ultradev 4 because i am not very much acquainted with the code.

I really need some help on this guys !!!!!

Insert code for sending email above redirection code. Something like:

If (MM_editRedirectUrl &lt;&gt; "" Then
***** Code for sending email *****
Response.Redirect(MM_editRedirectUrl)

For sending email (assuming you're using ASP/VBScript) take a look at:
