Reply Contact I had to reformat my harddrive and can't figure out how to configure IIS SMTP.  Any help would be appreciated. If everything happens for a reason what is the reason for this error?

Reply Contact I have researched this to no end.  Unfortunately, I really just don't know anything about IIS or SMTP.  I have everything configured to the best of my knowledge but it still says "Failure sending email".  If everything happens for a reason what is the reason for this error?

  Re: How do you configure IIS SMTP? Reply Contact There is two common problems, your ISP is blocking port 25, not allowing you to route email.  2) DNS is not configured.  Generally, the only thing I really do to get this working is make sure the DNS servers configured on the box can resolve internet names, and under IIS Manager > SMTP Properies > Access Tab > Relay' 127.0.0.1 is added.  Here is a couple blogs to help enable logging and use SMTPDiag. http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield/archive/2007/03/25/want-help-with-iis-smtp-service-please-enable-logging.aspx http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield/archive/2006/09/25/SMTPDiag-_2D00_-troubleshooting-email-issues.aspx Steve Schofield Windows Server MVP - IIS http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield http://www.IISLogs.com Log archival solution Install, Configure, Forget
