from memory, i think it relies on a local smtp server. do you have the mail

server service started?

Yes, we are using a local SMTP server.  We are using iMail instead of the

one that comes with IIS, but we tried stopping iMail and using the IIS mail.

It didn't work either.

Try 



Set the 'Outgoing Connections' port to 25,

The 'Smart Host' using the IP address of the IMail server, and the 'FQDN' a

s the FQDN for the IMail Server.



A person ran into this and posted what he did on aspfree.com



Try the above tips.

Hi People,



Here's a mock-up employee nomination form I did that allows someone to

nominate an employee by e-mail (Please note that some of the code may be

changed as we have a security package checking e-mail that comes in and

out):



<html>

<head>

<title>Employee Nomination</title>

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Util" %> 

<XCRIPT LANGUAGE="VB" RUNAT=SERVER ID=Xcript1>

	Sub btnSubmit_OnClick(Obj as Object, E as EventArgs)

		

		If Page.IsValid Then

		Dim MyMessage as New MailMessage 

		MyMessage.To = "john.mandia@c..."

		MyMessage.From = "employee@c..." 

		MyMessage.Subject = "This is an employee vote from: " &

employee.Text 

		MyMessage.Body = "The following employee has been nominated:

" & nominated.Text & ". The person who voted him was: " & employee.Text

		SmtpMail.Send(MyMessage)



		Message.Text = "Thank you " & employee.Text & " for

nominating " & nominated.Text & "!"

		

		End If

	End Sub

</XCRIPT>

</head>

<body>



<center>

  <H3><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Employee Nomination

Form</font></H3>

</center>

<form method="post" name="nomination" action="index.aspx" runat="server">

  <table align="center" border="0">

    <tr> 

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Employee

Name:</font></td>

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><asp:Textboxid="nominated" size="30" value="" runat="server"
/></font></td>

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif"><asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server"
id="reqnominee"ControlToValidate="nominated" ErrorMessage = "You must nominate someone"display="Dynamic"
/></font></td>

    </tr>

    <tr> 

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Your Name:</font></td>

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><asp:Textboxid="employee" size="30" value="" runat="server"
/></font></td>

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif"><asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server"
id="reqemployee"ControlToValidate="employee" ErrorMessage = "You must provide your name"display="Dynamic"
/></font></td>

    </tr>

    <tr> 

      <td> </td>

      <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><asp:Buttontype="submit" name="btnSubmit"
Xnclick="btnSubmit_XnClick" text="Nominate anEmployee" runat="server"/></font></td>

      <td> </td>

    </tr>

  </table>

  <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br />

  </font>

  <p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><asp:Labelid="Message" runat="server"
/></font></p>

</form>

</body>

</html>



If you wish to check and see if you code is working look in the mailroot

folder in Inetpub to see if it has been created.  If it has then it is an

SMTP problem rather than .Net problem.



I hope this helps!
