1. My Network Settings configuration is set to automatically find the
dns. what should i do to solve the "SMTP could not connect to the DNS
server '192.168.101.101'. The
[quoted text, click to view] > > protocol used was 'UDP'." problem?
where did ip '192.168.101.101' come from? i didnt define it anywhere..
2. The purpose of my server is something like mail filtering. user
x@a.com sends a msg to user@myserver.com, and i pass it to y@b.com,
where b.com can be ANY SERVER in the world. is there a way to do this
without open relay? (i understood that open relay might be considered
spamming)
3. i just wanted to know if someone encountered a mail-loss after a
crash, or is iis' smtp safe enough to handle this.
thanks
