I have got the following code it is working fine without any error but it didn't send e-mail to maafgh@yahoo.co.uk. and I was connected to the Internet when I executed the following code.

<%
Set Mail=Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
Mail.To="maafgh@yahoo.co.uk"
Mail.From="info@goingoffers.com"
Mail.Subject="Just testing my script"
Mail.Body="Hey! I am sending this email through an ASP Page, and guess what? I haven’t learnt much yet, but know that ASP is very powerful."

Mail.Send
Set Mail=nothing

%>

Fax
Is there anyone who knows how to send a fax through ASP?
If Yes, Could you please let me know or attach a sample.

Thanks,

is the From email address a valid email? If not, Yahoo maybe blocking it because they think it is spam. Even if the address is valid, they still may be blocking it because they think its spam.

The code looks good, so I would suggest sending the test email to another email address, preferably non-Yahoo.

With your fax sending do you have a modem attached to the server or do you want to use a third party company to send the fax?

E-Mail

I also tried hotmail address.
It didn't work, maybe it would work once I upload the site to the server.

I don't know, never used before.

Thanks,

Fax

Which way do you prefer is good?
At the moment I have got BT Broadband with external broadband modem.
I would like to test the fax first on my personal computer then I would be uploading site to host server.

Well if can show me both ways that would be perfect.

Thanks,

Yup, that might be the problem since ASP stands for Active Server Pages. I believe the process needs to be executed at the server level for all to work. Only way to find out is to give it a try. ;)

You can get third part add-ons that will let you send faxes from asp. Do a Google search and you will find a fair few of them. (You might want to check with your web host before purchasing any of these though)
