[thelist] CDONTS again - can't send mail from a subdirectory?

I've got a working application using CDONTS .
The key to getting it to play nice is the set up of the
SMTP service on the IIS computer.
Right click on the SMTP service and go through the tabs.
The Delivery tab is the one that gave me problems.

Probably permissions problem. Try giving Everyone write permissions on the
spool folder, or at least the user that cdonts runs as (i dont know which).
I played with cdonts a while back, and I remember something really insecure
like this and I chose not to use it. Frontpage needs permissions set like
this too. I guess once you have one MS security hole, MS figures they might
as well add a few more.
