Sending The Same Series Of Emails With MAPI In VB5 Produces Different Results?
Oct 15, 2009
I am using VB5 on a Windows XP SP3 computer.I have an application that send emails to customers that have birthdays today and that bought a product from me today. If I run the application several times with the same search criteria with the same customers and the same date and time, I "may" or "may not" get the save Emails sent out.I am using a MAPI Signon prior to the birthday select and MAPI Signoff after the birthday select; another MAPI Signon prior to the sales today select and MAPI Signoff after the sales today select.I count the emails that are supposed to be produced in each select above and the counts are correct. It's the emails that may not agree with the counts.What could cause this?
I have decided to go down the MAPI / CDO or Winsock route in my application. Sending emails is easy enough. However, I need to retrieve and display emails. The slight twist in the tail is that I don't want to download / access all emails, just those from a certain sender's email address. Most users will have Outlook installed on the computer but i'd rather not rely on this unless I have to. I'm not sure which technology to use and how to go about this as I don't want to download all messages and then iterate through them. I'd rather just request emails with specific properties.
In Windows XP as well as in Vista,it was possible to compose and send out an email using MAPI with the default email application MS Outlook,utlook Express or anyother. Butin Windows7, it is not possible to send out mails using MAPI.The ResolveNamefunction callprompts an error. I found that ResolveName function is deprecated Is there anything else can fix this problem?Following is a sample of the code
Im working on a board game in vb.net. But Ive stumbled on a problem; for some reason Im not getting the correct location reference when I move my picturebox. Let me explain the procedure; First it locates the current position of Red1 with Red1Top and Red1Left, and assigns a number for its position; intCurrentSpot. Then it adds what ever was rolled from the dice intDieA to the current location; intCurrentSpot and the second case statement moves it to the new location. HOWEVER position 11 reads as position 10 and hence gives the user an incorrect reading to where the dice points. Ive checked the numbers over a thousand times and still getting an incorrect reading, what am I doing wrong or can I use something else to get Red1 location?[code]...
I have a string with 3 rows. Each row is ended with <CR><LF>. I have verified this by writing the string to file and open it in notepad++The problem I am having is that I want to split this string into an array. When I split on vbCrLf I get 6 lines with this code:
I'm using the MAPI code by Dave Brooks.I am attempting to programatically send out a Crystal Report that is generated.When I run through the code without threading everything runs fine. The problem is when I use threading I get the return error "General MAPI failure [2]".I have never used threading before and understand that there are dangers involved. Can anyone provide any insight into this issue? NOTE: I've removed exception handling to make the code clearer.[code]

Now there's a user "A" who has 100 followers...now what i want to do is whenever user "A" submits an article in the website all his followers should get an email with the article link...that is okay i can do it.
Problem: Now, there's a submit button on the page which stores the article in the DB and sends email to the followers...as there are many followers it takes a lot of time sending the emails...so the page keeps showing loading msg till all the emails are sent..how can i send all the emails asynchronously ??
i mean after the article has been submitted ...the emails should go automatically to the followers without putting the email sending function in the click event of the button....hope am not confusing you folks.
can i do something like store the article in the DB , redirect to the article page , start sending emails in a batch of 10 per 10 mins automatically...this process should start as soon as an article has been submitted by an user.
I have been trying to make my own app for sending emails. But I have been trying to make it where I don't have to sign into my hotmail account, it just does it automatically. Then all I need to do is fill out the recipients, subject, and body for the message and hit send but I am having issues. I can't for the life of me get it to work. After a week of messing around with it and scouring the internet for help, I have gotten to where the only error I get is, failure to send message.

I have been working on this because I can't use Outlook with hotmail and I figured it would be interesting to try, but it turns out to be a lot harder than I expected.

I'm currently using SmtpClient to send emails to users that register or sign up for an event.When they click register it saves the info and calls the send email function, but it takes slightly less than a second to send an email which is too long.Is there a way to save the users info and after the page is loaded it calls the send email function from vb in the background.
it shouldnt say all that? just hello with a red background?

I want to send emails to all the followers of my website as soon as a new article is submitted.
PROBLEM: I want to send the emails asynchronously using threading or a windows service. I am not sure about windows service as I am using a shared hosting. But my real concern is that I want to send out the emails only when traffic is low in my site. How do I go about this? Ho do I check if traffic is low or not?
My latest project requires both sending and receiving emails. Now i know how to send emails using a gmail account, but what im having incredible difficulty with, is accepting emails. What i want, is to have a program that both has the ability to send emails, and capture emails being sent to the logged in user, and place them in an inbox list. I was wondering if anyone knew how to receive emails with a program, even temporarily, so that when an email is sent to the user, my program knows about it, and can take the body from the email, and place it in say a textbox.
Firstly I've searched the forums and cant find anything on this how to access an email account, then read unread emails received and then write the email body into a database.
I'm building a windows forms application that's supposed to run on a remote/isolated machine and send error notifications by email to the admins. I've tried employing System.Net.Mail classes to achieve this but I'm running into a strange problem:
1. I get an error message:
System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Receive(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset,
When I try to send an email with Gmail using VB.Net or C# I keep getting the following message: Failure sending email - An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions - Unable to access remote server. I have tried using several Gmail accounts including VB.Net code that worked in the past, like the following:
I have a simple program that uses this code Dim sParams as string = "" Dim emailto as string = TextBox1.Text Dim subject as string = TextBox2.Text Dim body as string = TextBox3.Text sParams = "mailto:" & emailto & "?subject=" & subject & "&body=" & body System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(sParams) From this thread [URL] Now I have a table with about 6 email address's in. How would I go about sending emails to each one of these emails in the database using this code. User can also add emails to the database.
I know how to send emails using mssql and vb.net but I cannot figure out how to send an email with an attached sql query results using vb codes.I tried to use SqlDataReader and XmlReader but cannot seem to send the entire row read from a table.What�s the best approach?
I have a query that returns Lname, Fname, and Email. I want to send 1 email (that Is already set up and working) that contains the results of the query as part of the body that includes an additional message; "The persons listed below.........." Need to know how to get them "listed below". Then I want to send a separate e-mail to each email address the query returns, separately not in a group but the same message.
We are having problems with sending back to back emails on one of our web sites. The site is built with .net framework 2.0.We can send the first email without any problems on every try. But to send a second email you need to wait about 20-30 minutes.the problem.One thing we tried was changing the smtp email server. We tried a third party smtp server but the same problem persisted. So I think the problem is not with the smtp server but with our .net code.
