using cdosysmail to send mail

  • Hi

    Can anyone please let know that how cdosysmail SP sends email .

    Does it use/picks up SMTP setting ?

    Thanks

  • It uses OLE Automation to call the CDOSys COM objects and can send it directly to the mail server. I believe that if you change the configuration in the stored procedure that you can use a pickup folder if necessary, but I have never actually tried that. I just provided it the server, port, and authentication information and it sent it directly through SMTP.
