How to send email from within TS?

[Guest Rick]

I have a single domain running Windows 2003 Small Business Server R2 SP2.

Within the domain I have a Windows 2003 R2 SP2 running Terminal Services.

 

I am developing an Access 2007 app which will run on the TS server under

AccessRunTime and would like to eMail reports to Users of the application.

Exchange Server is running on the DC and I haven't put any MAPI programs on

the TS.

 

Must I load Outlook on the TS or can I send formatted mail directly to the

Exchange using SMTP?

 

Thanks for you wisdom.

Re: How to send email from within TS?

 

Depending on how you want to send mail, you do not need Outlook. Not sure

what version of Exchange you have, but there a a couple of APIs you can use:

Drop Directory, CDO 1.2, CDONTS (which is using SMTP directly) or MAPI mail.

You will find more information here:
