asp_cdo thread: Setting up/configuring SMTP Server to use CDONTS...


Message #1 by lkkl@m... on Fri, 26 Oct 2001 16:50:26
I am having difficulty setting up/configuring my SMTP Server to use CDONTS.



I have my CDONTS ASP code running great, but I cannot get it to email to 

whom I choose.



What steps must I take to properly configure it to allow emails to be sent 

to anyone/any domain without initially specifying each potential domain.



Do I use the SmartHost Configuration in some way?



I am running Windows 2000 Server with IIS5.



I would appreciate detailed steps to accomplish the setup.



Thanks,



Kevin

Hi,

U may need to check your firewall configuration. No, U don't need the 

smart host to send your email using the IIS5 virtual smtp server. Just 

leave that input box empty. The smart host is there to relieve some of the 

sorting and re-routing of mails from the smtp server. I suggest U leave 

that alone and get the smtp server up first.



I used to have the same problem until I take a look at my firewall 

configuration.



ps, for your info, I am still facing the problem in using the smart host 

to re-route my outgoing mail.



cheers
