Let me also add that this webserver is in DMZ.

You either don't have a working SMTP server or there is a server in the
middle of the process that will not relay your emails.

If you don't have this already, try using 127.0.0.1 (localhost) as your SMTP
server. Remember to allow relaying.

When you configure your IIS SMTP settings, you can configure your relay
settings under the Access tab. If you do not allow for relaying for at
least your local SMTP server, or, if you're using a remote SMTP server that
doesn't allow relaying, your emails will go nowhere. Thus, if you use the
localhost as the SMTP server, you need to make sure that the local SMTP
settings allow for relaying; if, on the other hand, you're using a remote
SMTP server, you need to verify that the server will allow for you to relay
your emails from your web server to the SMTP/mail server.

Hi Christopher,

Thanks for info,
let say I did setup IIS on my work sation, and I configured the smtp on this
PC, How smtp would send e-mails out side? do I have to give the name on my
ISP smtp for smart host in my virtual smtp?

thanks,

Shahin

Not necessarily. You could use your own workstation as the smart host as
long as port 25 isn't blocked by your ISP (and your own computer).
