Hi It is possible that you have installed SMTP Spooler by default and there is contention for the port numbers, causing your mail not to work.
To check that the problem is not DNS related, as a previous post suggested, try to use IP Addreses to collect and send mail. If that works, then the problem is not as I ahev suggested, but is DNS related. If that does not work, then there is a another problem, possibly a port problem. Check that you are not using a firewall package or personal firewall on the 'puter that hosts, this type of software may prevent you from connecting. If there is no such software, go to you control panel and check add/remove programs and open 'add / remove windows components'. Under the IIS installation, is a component called 'SMTP Service'. This is what microsoft thinks a mail server should look like. If it is installed, you should take it out as it will also be listening on the same ports as your Sambar server. If this is not the case, then there is a problem elsewhere. Try it out and let us know. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 15 March 2003 02:47 To: sambar List Member Subject: [sambar] Sambar server + XP + outlook 2002 continued {04} Hello !
