Bulk emailer program with Access 2000?

J

Could Tony Touews or someone else provide guidance in colloborating with an
bulk emailing faclity from access besides outlook or eudora.

Our web host which houses our mail server restricts our company from sending
more than 800 emails per day programmatically.

But, I need to send up to 10,000 non-spam emails.

Is there an elegant way to do this.....we currently use Act Contact
Management system to blast out emails using 3rd party e-blast. But, I am
trying to convert this to access as an alternative. But, what do I use in
place of e-blast....

Appreciated.

Your web host should be able to change the rules for you on a case by
case basis. If not change web hosting services.

No way. www.maximumasp.com are one of the best and most secure hosting
platforms for windows and asp scripted pages.....they refuse to allow us to
go over limit. Even if they did, I would have to queue the items which could
take ages if others on the same server were doing the same thing.

You either need to get your own list server on the web host or use an
internal smtp system on your own machine...there is the rub....

Many thanks - this almost does what I need but I am not totally confident
with their support and there seem to be bugs in the system.... but, it comes
close....have you used this product successfully?

I've used many FMS products...not this one in particular. Their support is
good, although I only ever needed it once and that was several years ago.
FMS is #1 in Access Development tools, so, I expect they would stand by
their product.
