ASP/VB Script

Mark_lj · 23rd March 2004

Anyone know any good UK based hosts with ASP vbscripting enabled - that also
allow bulk mailing. Everyone's acceptable use policy says that I can't do bulk
mailings. I only send out to 7-8000 and they are all opted in!!! The website
is a newsletter that they request articles for. It is not spam. But most good
hosts won't allow buk mail or advertising on bulk mail. I don't fancy hosting
with someone sending out the email then having the site pulled from my hosts
!!!

Any ideas ? Anyone? - oh and I have only 2 days to find a new host!

Thanks in advance.

Is your current host kicking you off?

What is your current site?

The current hosts are simply.com. - They are not kicking me off, its just that my one year contract is up, and I am not 100% happy with their service, there have been occasions when I have blasted out the email had 100 hits (and I have developed the site to be as bandwith friendly as I could) and the damn thing has hung.

But more important than that is they do not support ASP vbscript........

It might be easier to add what your budget is and how much bandwidth and disk space you need, plus what mail components (if any) you need installed.

Opps, details:

website is the most standard package less that 500MB transfer per month, with about 50mb site. I need about 10 pop accounts, but preferrably Catch all email. Access database would be useful but not essential - if not Access then MSSQL. As mentioned ASP vbscript (I haven't the time to read the books/learn PHP - hence ASP). Continuation of Domain registrattion.

1 domain to move now, then a further 4 more (those domains will probably require the same) and if the hosting is good then a probably 5 others with the same type of package over the next three months.

Currently paying £100 with simply.com

Sorry - Forgot about the mailing lists
