Is this program right for me?

[CJ]

I am wondering -- before I purchase and install etc -- is this program going to be able to help me? Here is what I need to do:

I need to set up something so that I can send the same email TO one email address, but "From" different email addresses. Or at least made to appear as though they are coming from different email addresses. I need for it to potentially hold a hundred or more email addresses to go "from". Does this make sense? lol. Might not. But that is what I need to do.

So you guys who use this program, will I be able to do that by building a macro using this program?

For what purpose?

No spamming! lol. I am not "that kind of girl". hock:

Long story. But basically I need to send a reply to one person from many people. I am sending emails out for other people and it takes FOREVER. The thing is the emails go from different people to one person. If I could set up a macro or something to help it would save a heck of a lot of time. To explain any more than that would take too darn long. So....

It will do the job, but you'll have to do the small amount programming. I've been using QM for I guess about 2 years now. It has been able to do *everything* I have thrown at it. I'm amazed everytime I code something. My wife uses it all the time, and she doesn't even realize it! When she uses a non-QM computer she keeps asking "where is that toolbar?".

Currently you cannot easily program QM to send email and specify different 'From'. Next QM version will be able to do this. Now, you would have to download some SMTP component, and some programming.

Next QM version will be able to do this.

Do you know when this will be available? hey Matt! I may need your help! lol

This simple function uses aspSmartMail component (attached) to send email. Create new function and name it eg "SendEmail4".

Code:

[color=blue]function [/color]$smtp_server $from $to $subject $text [$files]

[color=green];files: list of attachments, eg "$desktop$\file1.txt[]$desktop$\file2.txt"[/color]

[color=green];EXAMPLE
;SendEmail4 "mail.myhost.com" "my@address.x" "my@friend.y" "Hello!" "Some[]text"[/color]


[color=blue]typelib [/color]aspSmartMail "aspSmartMail.dll"

aspSmartMail.SmartMail m._create
m.Server=smtp_server
m.SenderAddress=from
m.Recipients.Add(to)
m.Subject=subject
m.Body=text
[color=blue]str [/color]s
[color=blue]foreach[/color](s files) m.Attachments.Add(s.expandpath)

m.SendMail

a remote smtp server ?

Code:

Error when check Sender address : 530 Authentication required

This component probably has problems with authentication, at least with some smtp servers. I tested how it works with smtp server that requires authentication, and it says "500 unrecognized command".

Code:

...
m.Username="myusername"
m.Password="mypassword"

m.SendMail

Ostrosoft SMTP component does not have this problem.
