Re: FLASH: OFF-TOPIC . . web enabled email signup??

There's nothing out of the box. You will have to get your hands dirty in

code. I saw a few months back in Microsofts Internet Developer Magazine

(MIND), now MSDN Magazine an article detailing how to do such a thing. Their

concept was using Active Server Pages, MS Exchange 5.5 and Site Server 3.

The short of it is you use Site Server to create and handle the user

accounts, since using NT accounts you are limited to 40,000 accounts per

server, with Site Server handling all the accounts you only need 1 NT

account. The article can be found at

http://www.microsoft.com/mind/defaultframe.asp?page=/mind/1299/webmail/webma

il.htm Looking at the source code they give you a lot so you might not have

to modify much just compile the COM & ActiveX components and install them

and the ASP scripts.


Don't poke your eye out,
