eramgarden Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 I worked on some VB6 apps that sent emails based on certian criteria in database tables...It used Microsoft CDO... At this new job..we dont have SQLMail (SMTP stuff) and managers want emails sent to them when a SQL Job fails. Someone said that having SQLMail puts a load on the database and not worth doing it... Wodering if I should propose to them to have a VB.Net Email application that reads some value from database and then email the appropriate people... Anyone has used CDO and VB.Net to send emails? Any thoughts? Quote
Machaira Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 You can use the SmtpMail class in the framework. Quote Here's what I'm up to.
eramgarden Posted June 15, 2005 Author Posted June 15, 2005 Do I need to keep outlook open on the box that runs the app? That's how VB6 app was... Quote
