[thelist] Sending mail problem with ASP/CDO

[Ken Schaefer]

: I'm running Server2003 and there are a few things using localhost, which
: I'm guessing might be my problem. Any idea how I can troubleshoot this? 
: Seems like it just cannot see the correct web site...

There's nothing wrong with connecting to the website. The problem is that you
are attempting to use a COM component to do some work. It's, in turn,
attempting to connect to the SMTP server running on localhost, and it's not
being able to do so (for whatever reason), and so it's generating an
exception.

Cheers
Ken
