Topic: SMTP ActiveX Component creates temporary files when sending attachments?

Our ASP application sends out email notifications using Dartmail (IIS 5). When an anonymous user (IUSR Account) triggers an email that has an attachment, the action fails and inetinfo usually locks.

I traced all I/O activity in the filesystem and noticed that Dartmail is attempting to create a copy of the attachment in WINNT/System32. Since IUSR does not have write access to the directory, it can not create the file. Dartmail attempts to create the file 100 times (attachment[1], attachment[2]...attachment[100]) and then crashes.

I thought it might be using WINNT/System32 because that was the location that the Dart DLLs were located. I unregistered/moved/re-registered the DLLs and got the same result. Is there a way to specify the location of the temporary files?

I am using the latest release of the DLLs. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The problem with inetinfo locking may have been fixed in the latest version, but it is still trying to create temporary files in WINNT/System32. Is there a way around this?

That was the problem I was talking about. Please tell me how to use our sample app to create a temporary file.
