I have 3 Windows 2003 servers, all running IIS6 - 2 of them have had the SMTP
service running for a while, and I am installing it on the 3rd one right now.
On this new server, I am having trouble with an ASP application trying to
send mail, so I was looking at the permissions under the security tab of the
SMTP node in IIS manager - my 2 existing servers have a "\Everyone" entry in
there, but my new server does not - when I click on "Add" though, "Everyone"
is not an option, and entering "\Everyone" does not work...

The error I get, BTW, is:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'
Server.CreateObject Failed

When you are creating a new CDOSYS object, the system does not yet
know whether you are going to be interfacing with the local IIS SMTP
server or with a remote SMTP server from any vendor. It's therefore
not an IIS issue that's preventing you from creating the relatively
generic object. It could be a problem with CDO registration. Could
you post the ASP code that is gen'ing that error?

Thanks for the reply - I figured it out: the ASP code is using CDONTS, and
this is a windows 2003 server which does not have it installed by default.
