8004020F error with CDO.Message

[Luis andyza@webmail.co.za]

I use CDO.Message to send e-mail from an asp page (similar
to the method at http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2305).
One of my testers entered an invalid e-mail address and
got an 8004020F error.

Is there a way to trap this error so that I can display a
better error message to the user and prevent the page from
crashing?

put this code:-
ON ERROR RESUME NEXT

Just before calling the send method.

After you have called the send method, use this code:-
If err.number then
'an error occurred... prolly invalid email
'put whatever code you need here
else
'the message was sent
end if
ON ERROR GOTO 0

Hope this helps
