Create object instance

Use CreateObject in VBS and new ActiveXObject in JScript to create object instances.

[vbs]
Dim oSmtp
Set oSmtp = CreateObject("ANSMTP.OBJ")

[jscript]
var oSmtp = new ActiveXObject("ANSMTP.OBJ");

Simple project to send email

The following sample demonstrates how to send email in VBS.

[VBS]
Dim oSmtp
set oSmtp = CreateObject("ANSMTP.OBJ")

Sub Send( From, Recipient, Subject, Body, Server )
  NORMAL_RECIPIENT = 0
  COPY_RECIPIENT = 1
  BLIND_COPY_RECIPIENT = 2

  TEXT_PLAIN = 0
  TEXT_HTML = 1	

  oSmtp.RegisterKey = "Your license key"
  oSmtp.Reset
  oSmtp.FromAddr = From
  oSmtp.Subject = Subject
  oSmtp.BodyFormat = TEXT_PLAIN
  oSmtp.BodyText = Body
  oSmtp.ServerAddr = Server

  oSmtp.AddRecipient Recipient, Recipient, NORMAL_RECIPIENT
  
  ' | add cc recipient
  ' | oSmtp.AddRecipient "test", "test@hotmail.com", COPY_RECIPIENT
	
  ' | add bcc recipient
  ' | oSmtp.AddRecipient "test", "test@hotmail.com", BLIND_COPY_RECIPIENT

  ' | ESMTP authentication
  ' | oSmtp.UserName = "your user name"
  ' | oSmtp.Password = "your password"
	
  ' | -- add file attachment -- |
  ' oSmtp.AddAttachment "c:\test.doc" 

  If oSmtp.SendMail() = 0 Then
    WScript.Echo "Sending email to " & Recipient & " succeeded!"
  Else
    WScript.Echo oSmtp.GetLastErrDescription()
  End If
End Sub

WScript.Echo "Please edit this file and input sender, recipient, subject, body and smtp server" 
'Send "dennis@hotmail.com", "support@adminsystem.net", "test subject", "test body", "127.0.0.1"
