I have tried the following 2 programs installed and working:
They are both installed but I seem to be having issue sending mail once I upgraded my forum? I have SMTP installed on the server and I have the correct relay host entered but I still can't seem to send e-mail? Any suggestions on trouble shooting this would be great. I previously used my internal IP address of my mail server and it worked fine. But after the upgrade it now bombs out, but no errors are reported on the page?  I tried using localhost and 127.0.0.1 too? Thanks in Advance!! Lo ------------- Just trying to have some fun and learn in the process. http://www.lodogg.com - Come have Some Fun |

do you require email authentification it maybe the issue also check if the IP Address is black listed at whois.sc/ipaddress or dnsstuff.com also check about any limitations |

The mail server and web server are on a flat network and the web server is aloud to relay off the mail server so there should not be an authentication issues? The only thing that has changed is the fact that I upgraded the website to the newest version? I checked the mail logs and when I make a post it doesn''t even seem to hit the mail server at all. Is there any scripts I can use to test mailing with *.asp? Thanks, Lo ------------- Just trying to have some fun and learn in the process. http://www.lodogg.com - Come have Some Fun |

paste this within a asp page <!--METADATA TYPE="typelib" UUID="CD000000-8B95-11D1-82DB-00C04FB1625D" NAME="CDO for Windows 2000 Library" --> <!--METADATA TYPE="typelib" UUID="00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4" NAME="ADODB Type Library" --> <% Dim objMail Set objMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message") Set objConfig = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Configuration") 'Configuration: objConfig.Fields(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServer)="localhost" objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServerPort)=25 objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPAuthenticate)=cdoBasic 'Update configuration objConfig.Fields.Update Set objMail.Configuration = objConfig objMail.From ="emal address2" objMail.To = "email address" objMail.Subject ="Test ofCDO" objMail.TextBody="This is a test for CDO.message" objMail.Send If Err.Number = 0 Then Response.Write("Mail sent!") Else Response.Write("Error sending mail. Code: " & Err.Number) Err.Clear End If Set objMail=Nothing Set objConfig=Nothing %> see what that does just cjange the falues for the email addresses |

The above script works fine. I put my mail server's IP in
objConfig.Fields(cdoSMTPServer)="MailServerIP"
And I put in my e-mail address in the following:
objMail.From ="emal address2"
objMail.To = "email address" And it worked great! I have the following setup in my forum:
CDOSYS
E-mail Server's IP
And when I do a test post I get the error below:
error '8004020f'
/forum/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 198 Thanks, -lo ------------- Just trying to have some fun and learn in the process. http://www.lodogg.com - Come have Some Fun |

It seems to be working fine now?
I added the correct mail server IP:\ Then I restarted the WWW and SMTP service and now it's working!
Thanks to all who helped!  ------------- Just trying to have some fun and learn in the process. http://www.lodogg.com - Come have Some Fun |
