Hi Ken, I tried using the adsutil.vbs first (before I got smtpmd.exe).
When that failed, I downloaded and installed MetaEdit 2.2, then navigated to the schema and had a look at the LM\SmtpScv\1 key. It doesn't have the property listed, let alone set to 0. So then I figured that it's an optional property - so might be listed in the Schems\Properties\Names key. I saw a couple of DisableXXX's in there but not the DisablePickupDotStuff property name. The two other DisableXXX's are: DisableNewNews And DisableSocketPooling Neither of these look as though they'd be useful. (But I'm getting so desperate I'll probably end up looking those up to see if they're documented!)

Additionally, you can probably use the adsutil.vbs utility to get the keys/values for that service. That might help in debugging (maybe the article has the key name incorrect or something) Cheers Ken ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From: "Ken Schaefer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: SMTP Bug - Deletes periods at beginning of line. : Um, the page says to do: : : smtpmd set smtpsvc/1/DisablePickupDotStuff <1> : : (with angled brackets).
