The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

ASP JMAIL SMTP Problem

Asked by Ellmb122 in Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: jmail

Hello,

I set up the following script on my dedicated server running Windows 2003 Server. It's using ASP and JMail and it runs as a VBS file:

============================

set msg = CreateObject("JMail.Message")
msg.ContentType = "text/plain"
msg.From = "test@mydomain.co.uk"
msg.AddRecipient "test2@mydomain.co.uk"
msg.Subject = "Test Message Subject"
msg.Body = "Test Message Body"

msg.Send(Server1) 'The name of my dedicated server and the domain listed under the Defaul Virtual SMTP Server in IIS.
msg.Close

============================

This works fine, I am now trying to move the script over to a server in my office using Windows Small Business Server 2003 with Microsoft Exchange. This is where I hit a problem.

In theory, the only line I needed to change is the second to last line of the script, the one that refers to the servername. However, because I'm running Microsoft Exchange there is no Default Virtual SMTP Server listed in IIS. I've tried changing this to sbs2003 (the name of my office server) or mynetwork (the name of the office domain) or sbs2003.mynetwork.local, mynetwork.local but none of these work.

I receive the same error every time:

"jmail.Message: The message was undeliverable. All servers failed to receive the message"

It is as if Exchange is blocking the e-mail being sent (although it doesn't appear in the BadMail directory) but I can't see why. Exchange should allow the email to go through because I'm running the VBS file as an administrator on the same machine.

I don't think it's a problem with JMail because I've had a similar problem when using other mail scripts. I have been able to send the mail using CDO because no SMTP server is needed but I need to send it through JMAIL because of the other features I plan to use.

Need your help experts!

Ell.
