: : Why would you ask that? If you have an invalid e-mail address, why would you even try to send an email to it?
: :
: : If you mean invalid as in it is in the correct format, but does not exist, then yes it will still try to send but of course it will bounce back and sit in your mail servers bad folder.

: : : if you will put an invalid email address in the .from statement, the message will not be sent? or still the message will be sent?
: : : Even if i put just a name and not an email address?

: : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : What version of Windows XP? It only ships with Professional edition, so if you have Home edition, there is no supported way to use IIS. If you search on Google you may find some hackish ways to do it, but they aren't very stable.

: : : : : : : : As for CDONTS, I think it's been replaced by CDOSYS, so you'll probably have to start using it instead (that's what I use here, and it works well enough).

: : : : : : : how can use CDOSYS or what do I need to use it? thanks.

: : : : : is it possible to send emails to yahoo, hotmail, etc using cdosys?
: : : : : : If you search on Google for CDO.MESSAGE, you should find some hits. That's the object name you'll use. ie Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
