Sending Email Notifications

[LeoXIV]

Hi Folks,

I am looking for articles that compare different methods of sending/processing/queuing email notifications to users.

for example, if you have a forum and the user wants to be notified when there is a reply.

Although it would be interesting to see how its done in "enterprisy" apps; the one I am currently working on is not one, well at least not at this stage.

I appreciate your comments.

you can save yourself the research and simply use this:

[aspemail.com...]

it works very well.

thanks makeupalley, how does it compare to the native SMTP of .net 2.0?

also i am looking for some 'best practices' for queuing, fire up events and so on.

Hi there,

I dont know how it compares to .net but I've been using it without a glitch for a few years now and sent probably several million messages with it.

There is a queuing tutorial in the manual [aspemail.com...]

good luck,

mem

If you are using .NET then use the Native email capabilities. ASPemail was produced in the days when ASP didn't have any native SMTP capabilities.
