Looking to build a web application which provides a platform for sending bulk SMS on reasonable rates. Whether i have to sign an agreement with GSM providers for sending SMS or is there an alternative for this? If so, how can i embed the SMS service with my application code?
View 1 RepliesI am creating a bulk email sending facility for our website.I have got all the email in one table so i know i can use email sending features with one loop that take all the emails from the table and send it to everybody.I would like to give them a link that will opt out them from the list.If anybody has done it recently or know any link please suggest it.

View 1 RepliesI am using gmail server settings to send emails for my asp.net website. Since there is a limitation on number of mails sent per day and limitations on sending to number of users, I cant use this service for long. Even If I use an idea to make sure I use multiple id's to send thousands of emails it will still not work.
I am taking care of all norms of subscribe and unsubscribe options, so that only registered users will receive mails.
I need to build a system which send mails accross thousands of emails * thousands of users per day. . I think this is possible, as emailers in twitter,facebook, orkut, linkeden work on same basis. Many of them use MailChimp Email Service.
But I am hosting my website on shared hosting (www.crystaltech.com) rather than dedicated server (Host Provider suggested me to go to dedicated server for my mail requirement). This host provider charges a lot to me if I include a dll, so I am not able to use dll. Is there any I can send bulk emails without using a dedicated server or dll.(Will use it in only in worst case scenario).My host providers said that they will be able to give service of sending only 800 mails per day. Are there any api providers for that. I have already checked with [URL]
I used to send sms to many . but not working below are my code

under button click

write code that can send bulk emails from an access database using asp.net/vb? I only need to send about 200 emails per day. also the email must be addressed to that person, eg. if the email address is kylesmith@gmail.com then the email should read Dear Kyle as well as the TO field should state kylesmith@gmail.com

I'm working on a project for my companies intranet which requires that multiple attached documents to the main DTO of the project need to be autoprinted in the background. The problem is it's a web project and I want the printing to be done under the surface. Now because it's on an intranet only certain people can use it and I can set a communal printer in the background but I'm wondering hwo to actually print under the surface, the attachments could be anything from photocopy gifs/jpegs to pdf/word docs. Should I use the PrintDocument class? Not really sure how to implement this one.

I have a requirement like sending multiple mails for each update in database.But if i write mail sending code on button click then it will delay the page load time till all mails are send.Is there any way to send mails using seperate thread that runs at backend or maintain a queue.
One more think content of all mails are not same always.
I would appreciate if anyone can give me some tips or ideas on a scenario I am working on. For instance, I have an asp.net solution and a webservice. I am sending data to the webservice which updates the settings, and while its doing it I would like the asp.net solution (website) to have a sort of log on the screen showing the user whats happening/which settings are being updated...Now from the webservice, while the settings/updates are being done, is it possible to send a request/state back to the asp.net project while that setting is being updated, rather than sending 1 setting at a time?
View 8 RepliesAs indicated in the Subject, I have a web application (say APP) that should feature an e-Mail Notification Service (ENS). Activation of the Service is controlled by a Button in a dedicated page where some parameters are also included to set running Period (FromTime - ToTime), Interval, Recipients, etc.
When said button is clicked, it should maintain those parameters into database then launch ENS. Since ENS is expected to run for good according to set parameters, it logically should run as an external application/service, independent from APP.
When ENS starts, it needs to consult database to fetch parameters, then schedules its Timer to periodically check database for some transactions that when found, should trigger ENS to dispatch e-Mails to concerned Recipient(s).
CHALLENGES:
1. Launch ENS as an external application on button click from APP.Achieved by using System.Diagnostics.Process class. However, I encountered a problem in verifying if the process is already running before starting it. The root of the problem lies in
ProcessName property. Since ALL web applications must be launched via IE, hence, have
iexplore as their ProcessName, which is also applicable to all processes started through IE, it is very likely to have multiple processes utilising IE. How to check which is which? I couldn't figure out that.
Eventually, I ended up with a workaround: when the Process is started from APP, capture its ID and save it to database, then use this ID with GetProcessById() method for later verification. When the Process is terminated, reset stored ID in database.
2. What sort of application should ENS be: Windows Application or Web Application?
In either way however, ENS will always run invisible in the background being a Process. If this is the case, how about creating it as a Windows Service instead?
I did a lot of reading but still confused. However, the choice is limited now to either Web Application or Windows Service. Which one is more convenient to the task in hand?
3. What Timer to use?
I tried System.Timers.Timer in a test web application but it didn't fire! Then I used ASP AJAX Timer and it worked pretty well (I still need though to try running it from APP to judge its functionality). I came across some recommendations to use System.Threading.Timer but haven't tested that yet. Would it worth the trial?
4. ENS as a Windows Service.
If I create ENS as a Windows Service, would I be able to communicate with database? How would this influence the Timer to use?

I am working on sending twitter updates from my asp.net website. I have the authorization down but I am stuck when it gets to sending the tweet here is my code behind:
protected void btnAuth_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// add these to web.config or your preferred location
var consumerKey = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["consumerKey"];
var consumerSecret = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["consumerSecret"];
//If User is not valid user
if (Request.QueryString["oauth_token"] == null)
{
//Step 1: Get Request Token
OAuthTokenResponse RequestToken = OAuthUtility.GetRequestToken(consumerKey,consumerSecret);
//Step 2: Redirect User to Requested Token
Response.Redirect("http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token="+ RequestToken.Token);
}
else
{
//For Valid User
string Oauth_Token = Request.QueryString["oauth_token"].ToString();
var accessToken = OAuthUtility.GetAccessToken(consumerKey, consumerSecret, Oauth_Token, txtPIN.Text.Trim());
lblMessage.Text = "<b>Hello " + accessToken.ScreenName + ", Welcome to my Twitter App<b>";
lblMessage.Text += "<br/> Token: " + accessToken.Token;
lblMessage.Text += "<br/> TokenSecret: " + accessToken.TokenSecret;
lblMessage.Text += "<br/> UserId: " + accessToken.UserId;
lblMessage.Text += "<br/> VerificationString: " + accessToken.VerificationString;
}
}
protected void btnTweet_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// add these to web.config or your preferred location
var consumerKey = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["consumerKey"];
var consumerSecret = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["consumerSecret"];
OAuthTokens accessToken = new OAuthTokens();
accessToken.AccessToken = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
accessToken.AccessTokenSecret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
accessToken.ConsumerKey = consumerKey;
accessToken.ConsumerSecret = consumerSecret;
TwitterStatus TweetStatus = new TwitterStatus();
TweetStatus.Update(accessTokens, txtTweet.Text);
}
I dont know how to get the AccessToken & AccessTokenSecret.
