Change your port number on MS SMTP to something OTHER then 25 (I have mine set to 125 I think) and start her up. All that e-mail thats in the que will start to be sent out. Another option is if you want to get rid of MS SMTP all together, is to install an ASP component such as ASP E-mail. It lets you specify what mail server to send out of. If you need help configuring this contact me off list as to keep the list on topic. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Scott Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2004 12:20:20 -0500 (EST) >This is related to a previous thread I started earlier regarding DNS >settings, which turned up that I may have an SMTP conflict between MS SMTP >and Imail SMTP. > >I've disabled MS SMTP, but I still don't seem to be receiving email >messages.
