19 Nov: CDONTS vs CDOSYS

CDONTS is dead, long live CDOSYS.

If you're using Windows 2000 or XP Pro (not XP Home, read why) you'll want to use CDOSYS for email now. It is a more efficient and powerful SMTP component than CDONTS.

My code doesn't support CDOSYS though, mainly because I'm using ASP.NET now for all my projects, and now use the awesome aspNetEmail component for email. That said, I found a good article on CDOSYS by Scott Forsyth on the ORCS Web site...
