[STRIKE]Just setting up the email part of our website, and just trying out a test form to send an email over CDO.

Its coded in asp (I can post code up if needed but I know it works), works fine on my XP dev machine using my localhost SMTP server. I'm using a sendusing value of 2.

I've installed SMTP on my win 2008 server machine. As a side note, I hate IIS 7!

I believe I have the authentication setup correctly - however the options to setup SMTP seem minimal compared to that on IIS on XP.

I get a 500 error, server logs reveal it to be 8004020f

I had this error the first time I setup on XP, and resolved by amending the relay authenication. However I cannot see anything like this setting on IIS 7, or indeed anything more detailed than merely selecting which user to authenicate with or a mail drop directory.

Any ideas?[/STRIKE]


Edit - sorted, needed to setup in IIS 6.0 :o
