My client needs to be able to perform a mass email mailout of a newsletter (just once a month). Does anyone know of any resources I can use to code this ? Its on a hosted server and im using C#. I have found one example that sends the email aynchronously, but for some reason the emails just dont get sent. I have used the same code for sending an individual email, but it wont go when sent synchronously. Heres the code im currently using
[Code]....
Ive stepped through the code on my development machine and Ive confirmed that the SendEmail Method is being executed and I have used the sendmail method to send an individual email (which works). When I deploy the code to a hosted environment, the emails dont get sent.
using vb.net and sql server 2005.I am creating a windows service and querying another type of db (not sql server) and storing the results in a dataReader.Once I have all the records what is the best and most efficient way to do sql inserts?
here's my questions:is there a good asp software component for creating + sending newsletters online (via browser)?is it recommended at all to send thousands of newsletters directly off my IIS machine? (because of server load) or better using a standalone win-application for creating/sending?i'd like to code my own software for that and think a standalone html editor which also creates the (personalized) emails + sends them would be a better alternative - what would you think?
I'm using Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 to create a web service with VB.NET. I'm using a Stored Procedure in SQL Server 2008 so that SQL can insert all the data that I'm passing. The problem is that in one of the servicse I need to pass around 10,000 records and it's not very efficient to run the stored procedure 10,000 times.
I read that there is a way in which you can pass an XML file with all data to the Stored Procedure but I'm not sure if that's the most efficient way. Also I couldn't make the code work, I don't know if I have to pass the XML as a String. I'm asking for help with a method in which I can pass a lots of records to the stored procedure once and then the same instance of the Stored procedure can process all the records in a loop
i'm trying to send mass email to all my users. But i cannot send too many email at a time because I would be treated as spam or blacklisted, not just by my own isp, maybe the user's server too.So, initially i was thinking to write a loop and loop through the list of emails and send out batch by batch. But this would require my website to be stay opened until it finish.so, any better suggestion? i'm using my own server to relay the message before sending it out. is there email queining feature in my own mail server?
I have a customer database of 100,00,000 records stored in a sql db.I need to send mass emails to those customers everyday at a particular time.I want to use thread pool to achive it.

Having trouble putting together a good solid newsletter.Can some of you experts help me with this problem. Either with code or link tutorials.everything!
I have a newsletter system which sends out emails to subscribers who have signed up via a form on the front-end of the website. I would like to find a way of recording which emails bounced-back, due to an unknown email address etc..
I'm looking to build a user control where the user should be able to select N number of files for upload using the same "file/explorer" dialog/control. Currently, the FileUpload control enables a user to select only one file for upload. I have seen examples where people have modified this, so that uploaded files are stored in a list to provide a "mass upload" functionality. However, the user can select only one file at a time. This is NOT what I want, the user should be able to select multiple files at a time, or select a folder with which I should be able to upload all the children images. Is there any way I can do this or has someone done this already and i'm somehow missing it?
i'm making a application for a newslettersystem. The only thing i want yet is to subscribe to a elecronic newsletter, but the record to subscribe isn't inserting. What do i do wrong?
[Code]....
and the vb code
Protected Sub btn_verwerken(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim strConnectie As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/nieuwsbrief.mdb") Dim Connectie As New OleDbConnection(strConnectie) Try Connectie.Open() Dim strSQL As String = "INSERT INTO TBL_Subscribers(Email, SubscribeDate, ActivateDate, UnsubscribeDate) VALUES (@Email, @SubscribeDate, @ActivateDate, @UnsubscribeDate)" Dim command As New OleDbCommand(strSQL, Connectie) command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Email", Emailadres.Text) command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@SubscribeDate", DateTime.Now) command.ExecuteNonQuery() Connectie.Close() Response.Write("inserted") Catch ex As Exception MsgBox(ex.Message.ToString, MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, "BCT") End Try End Sub
On a website I'm building user's can subscribe to newsletters by entering their email address into a form and submitting. This will then add them to a 'Newsletter_Subscribers' table in the database.
Users can also sign-up to the website by entering their username/password/email details. They also have the option of subscribing to the newsletter. If they choose to do this then their email address is added to the 'Newsletter_Subscribers' table.
However, I wish to make the data more consistent rather than storing the email address into two different unrelated tables in the database.
Has anyone tackled this issue before, and what is the best way to go about storing this information?
One idea I had was to have a 'Users' table, a 'Users.Members' table and a 'Users.Subscribers' table. All three would have a relating UserID column, with the email address stored in the 'Users' table but I'm not sure this is the best method as I would also wish to store the Username/Password in the 'Users' table in case we had a 'Users.Advertisers' table for example.
Would it be possible to creae a web form that will take an Excel sheet of email address or SQL Server Database and mass email to these people through a web form? If so, does anyone have or know some step by step instruction on how to do this?
