iis smtp nntp: Hello,

A few months ago I was practicing sending an email from an
smtp virtual server running on a win2k server with iis5.0
running. I was practicing using aspx. This was working.
Then I put it down for a while, but now I want to use it
again and I keep getting this error message in the bad
mail directory:

[quoted text, click to view]
Unable to deliver this message because the follow error
was encountered: "This message is a delivery status
notification that cannot be delivered.".

The specific error code was 0xC00402C7.

The message sender was <>.

The message was intended for the following recipients.
j.smith@smith.com
<<

we'll say that j.smith@smith.com is a valid email domain.

Here is the code that I am using in aspx:
------------------------------------------
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Mail"%>
<script runat="server">

Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
Dim EMail As New MailMessage()
'fully qualified domain name is
cnfrkccmc001.cn.msds.kp.org
EMail.To = "j.smith@smith.com"
EMail.From = "j.smith@smith.com"
EMail.Cc = "jsmith@aol.com"
EMail.Subject = "Test Email"
EMail.Body = "Here is the body of our email"
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost" '<-- this one not
getting error message
'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "cnfrkccmc001.cn.msds.kp.org" '<-
-this one not getting error message
'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "10.246.66.251" '<--doesn't
work :-( <-- this is the preferred DNS server
'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "10.237.99.226" '<--this one not
getting error message
Try
SmtpMail.Send(EMail)
Span1.InnerHtml = "Mail Sent!"
Catch exc As Exception
Response.Write("Send mail failure: " + exc.ToString())
End Try
End Sub

</script>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<asp:Button id="Button1" onclick="Button1_Click"
runat="server" Width="89px" Text="Send Email"></asp:Button>
<span id=Span1 style="font: 8pt verdana;"
runat="server" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
------------------------------------------------

Any suggestions? Do I need to set/re-set something in the
smtp server or IIS? BTW, can I create an email domain on
this server so that it can receive emails? How can I do
that?

Thanks,
Tippe

Hello,

Does your Event Log tell you anything?
It is:

Start->Run, eventvwr.msc

For all the attempts I made, the eventviewer said this:

Information
....
Source: smtpsvc
Description:
Virtual Server: the drop directory, for * could not be
created.

But in the mailroot directory, there is already a drop
subdirectory. In any event, a coworker pointed out that
it is only a virtual server and gave me an actual smtp
server name to use which does work for my app. However, I
have a new question (because before I was able to send
mail directly from this server and now I can't).

I added the name of the smtp server to the smart host
window in the Deliver/Advanced tab of the Default SMTP
Virtual Server Properties. But I still can't send mail
when I reference this server by IPaddress, domain name, or
DNS server IP address. I also went into
IIS/Properties/server extensions/settings and set the name
of the smtp server the coworker gave me in the SMTP Mail
Server window, but alas! I still can't reference my
server to send out email. I can only reference the smtp
server to successfully send email from my app. Is there a
way to alias this smtp server in my default smtp virtual
sever so that I can send emails with my IPaddress?

Thanks,
T
