Hi everyone,

I just installed a 2003 small business server - including running the internet & email wizard - but I cannot send mail for some reason.

I've tried using both DNS and a smarthost to route mail. I've tried my comcast email server (my ISP) and the mail server where I have email accounts because they host a website for me. Nothing seems to get mail out.

Initially, I found files in the BadMail folder. I deleted those and tinkered with the SMTP connector some more. I'm not getting anything in the BadMail folder, but mail apparently is going nowhere.

I see the message quickly leave the Outbox and I don't get any undeliverable messages. Where is the mail going? Where can I look for it? Any help would be appreciatied.

Frank
