Hello,

I have a copy of youre WebWiz Forum installed on a Windows 2003 WebEditon with IIS 6.0 and an ASPEmail compnent running on the background

I have "Email Activation of Membership" enabled, now when someone tries to register, fill in the registration form, and click register this error pops up:

Persits.MailSender.4 error '800a0002'

Winsock error 11004 (0x2AFC) occurred.

/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 269

Is there someone who has any why this is?
Kind Regards
Pieter Geelhoed

It could be that the AspEmail component does not work with Windows 2003.

Windows 2003 does have CDONTS and CDOSYS, both of which have been tested with Windows 2003 and do work.

Make sure the SMTP service is running.

My SMTP Service (in IIS) is running...

do i have to configure something at the SMTP Service or are the default settings good?

Hi again all,

i found a solution if you are using ASPEmail Component and you get this error:

Persits.MailSender.4 error '800a0002'

Winsock error 11004 (0x2AFC) occurred.

/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 269

If you get this error its because the smtp server youve typed in cant be resolved, it workt for mee to ping the smtp server i was using and typing the IP Address instead of typing in the name.

Kind Regards,
