Solve : sending an email from an asp page on a server.?

Answer»

My colleague has been writing a web based package for our companies Windows Server 2003 domain.

At one point in the package it gets the server to send an email to an internal email address. This WORKS fine when he's running it using IIS on his own XP PC. However, when he tries running the package on a Windows Server 2003 server he gets the following error message: -

No CONNECTION could be MADE because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:25

Any ideas as to what I must tweak in Server 2003 to get this WORKING?Port 25 is...
Oh gosh.. something to do with mail.
Ah, Port 25 is SMTP.


You either:
a) Have no SMTP server running on your server...
b) Have blocked Port 25 or SMTP related services in the firewall.
