Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am trying to send
email via an ASP.Net Page. It is actually a script that is shown and
operating on ASP101 so I believe that it works properly and is a
configuration problem on my machine. The error message i am receiving is:
Exception Details: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The server
rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server response was: 550
5.7.1 Unable to relay for hugh@k...
I am however able to send email from classic ASP scripts using CDONTS. I
did notice that in checking IIS, the SMTP Virtual Server is not
installed. However I do have Exchange installed so I am not sure if I
need it or not, especially since I can send from CDONTS. If I need to
install this, I am unsure how to go about it since IIS, at least from my
knowledge, installs as part of Windows 2000 Server. Any help that you
could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hugh,
If you are using the System.Web.Mail namespace to send emails,
you have to have your own SMTP server running on the machine you are
hosting the ASP.NET web pages. However, the other alternative is to
point the SMTP server to another remote mail server like this:
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com";
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send("myemail@y...",
"recipient@w...", "Hi there", "What's up?");
Usually the mail servers you use only allow you to send emails
that appear to come from the same domain. So, Yahoo's
smtp.mail.yahoo.com only accepts email send from @yahoo.com. Plus, you
often have to check your mail first before you can send mail, so try to
find a more "liberate" server.
Minh.

I reckon you would just put the 2000 CD back in and select add / remove
programs and check a box next to SMTP?
I could be wrong.

Hi Hugh,
This is quite easy. Go to "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panel,
select "Windows Components" from the bar at the left, choose "Internet
Information Services" and click "Details". The "SMTP Services" is right
there in the list.

Hugh,
Installing SMTP is an option from the IIS install. It runs off port 25, so
make sure you don't have any other software using this (some SAP stuff can
get configured to it). The only other thing you really need to do is point
your SMTP at a mail server, eg an exchange server on your domain... you put
the DNS name or IP address in the host textbox on the properties dialog.
That should be about it I think.
You can check what the errors are if you don't manage to send a mail by
looking in the queued directory under Maillroot in inetpub, there will be a
text equivalent of your mail and also a .eml(I think) file that details the
problem.
A long time since I did any of this, so dont take it all as gospel, but it
should get you started.
Paul.
