Online and Batch Messaging
I am creating an ASP application with Visual Basic Components. The application needs a large amount of e-mail messaging, some of which will be realtime, i.e. email sent immediatley a particular function is called, and some will be batch i.e I want a process to run overnight which will send e-mails to people in the database.
My problem is how to I achiveve this. The only way I can think of is to write an e-mail sub into my components for the realtime messaging and then write an .EXE which is scheduled using the AT command on Win NT. I dont really like this because the .EXE file is seperate from the rest of the system. Does anyone have another suggestion. Details of my set-up are below.
Web Server - Win 2000
DB Server - Win 2000, SQL SERVER 2000
DAL,BLL - Visual Basic Components running under COM+
Presentation Layer ASP 3.0
Many Thanks
