IIS 6 + CDONTS.NewMail - Does not work?

Hi,

I suggest that you migrate to CDO, but you can follow the steps here and
copy the cdonts.dll file to your Windows Server 2003 machine:

You also have some sample code for CDO here:

You can copy over cdonts.dll from a w2k box, and register it, but I would change your code to use cdo. Much better performance, with less bugs.

Thank you. I hope this information is helpful.
