I use the IIS SMTP server that sits on the same server that CF is running on, and set it to only allow connections from 127.0.0.1
Keeping the whole process one one server makes it easier to debug a possible email problem too. If the email isn't in the iis badmail or the cf undlvr folders, it left our server, no if's and's or but's. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Saturday, November 16, 2002, 8:03:42 PM, you wrote: PL> so we are in the process of changing email servers and we toggled PL> relaying on and somehow the malicious spammers found it in record time PL> and started bombing us with email to broadcast...
