Hello.
I have a ASP script that uses CDONTS mail components to send emails.
My problme is that all outgoing emails are sent to queue folder ..
i am running smtp on win 2k server , with iis 5.
port is set to 25. network card has static ip address.( ip address assigned
by routher ex: 192.168.....)
I have a router .. and that is been setuped based on info on manufacturere
website. ( linksys ) .
This server is not domain controler.. Active directory is not installed on
this system..
so would anyone please help me on setting up smtp so i can just send out
emails using my asp script?

Thanks

This is usually caused by one of two things:

a) the from: address in your emails are not valid (the domain in the from:
address must be resolvable by the DNS server)

b) the SMTP server is having DNS resolution issues, and can't work out where
to deliver the mail to. Check DNS resolution on the server (eg using
nslookup or similar).

Cheers
Ken
