All,
My problem is solved for now.
I am using "smtp.netzero.net" for my smtp server and Net::SMTP for
mailing.
Have set in my Apache httpd.conf file:
"PerlSetVer MailHosts smtp.netzero.net"
However this is not a perfect solution and further investigation
needs to be done as to why I could not use "localhost" as my smtp
server.
But for now I am happy atleast I can send mails from my ASP page.
Anyone stuck with this or need help on this contact me at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
My Operating system is Windows 98.
Thanks,
Kunal Parekh.
