Problem with windows xp smtp engine?

Asked by teched1000 in Email Clients

Tags: folder, windows, xp, engine, smtp

Hi there,

I am using windows xp sp2 I am trying to use the internal smtp engine to send office coleages email.

Now we normally send email out throught our ISP smtp engine (mail.ISP.net) and our email accounts pop3 accounts are held on our ISP server. We download from there server to our email clients (outlook).

Now the problem is that our domain name is the same as our email address. For example my computer is called mycomputer.companyname.com and my email address is myname@companyname.com.

As a result when I try to send a email to someone in our office through the internal windows smtp engine looks around see's the domain name of the network and the domain name on the email are the same and trys to send the email directly to a computer. The result is that the email never leaves my computer e.g. never leaves our network/internet gateway.

I know this because my symantec scans every email coming into and going out of my computer and I do not get a pop up saying the email has been scanned when I send an email addressed to people in the company.

I have checked, and these emails stay in the queue folder (C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Queue) and then after about 10 minutes move into the badmail folder.

I have tried entering a Masuerade domain and changing the domain name. But still the email will not be sent. I have entered the my ISP smtp server address in the Smart host. But it still does not send it.

Does anyone know of a work around for this?

Or have some suggestions.

TIA

Eddy
