Can you telent to the SMTP server on that machine?
On a command prompt:
Telent localhost:25
If you get a response, you know it's running. No? Then you haven't got the
SMTP service running on that box. Make sure that the SMTP service is
running.
Next, map an account through outlook or something to that SMTP server. Can
you send mail through it? No? Check the security.
If both work, then make sure you have a mail server mapped through CF
Administrator.

I just installed Win2k Advanced, CF5 Eval, Test Server to help convince my
boss to go that direction (he is a slow adaptor, we are still on NT4 and
CF4.0). My problem is, besides the fact that we don't have a sys.admin, I
can't get the sucker to send out mail! I am not too worried about security,
port 25 is closed on the outside. How do I setup "Virtual SMTP" to send out
the mail! Please, oh please, tell me how to open the sucker up so it can
send from [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think, I might explode. For days, I have
researched this all over the net and can't find any article or tips on how
to set it up.
Thanks a million!
