Ken:
I fixed it! I scrounged around the internet for awhile and found someone
who had moved emails from a Linux box, which introduced a problem with the
LineEnd character(s).
I looked at our billing software and noticed there was a configuration for
LineEnd characters. I changed it from CRLF$ to LF$ and everything works as
it's supposed to.
How'd I figure that one out?
Thanks again,
Bill
P.S. I was configuring an IIS SMTP server.

Hi,
The domain I'm using in the "FROM:" field is my company domain.
OK - just wanted to check you weren't using "domain.com" (unless you have
configured your DNS servers to resolve domain.com, and your SMTP server is
configured to use your internal DNS servers)
Our company domain is resolvable on other servers by other kinds of
software
That is irrelevant. IIS SMTP server will not send mail out if it can't
resolve the From: domain in the DNS. So you need to check whether From:
domain is resolvable by the IIS box.
Also, verify that there are no file system filters (e.g. antivirus
software, imaging softare - Ghost/Acronis) configured to scan this pickup
directory.
Lastly - do you have Exchange installed on this machine, or is it IIS SMTP
only?
Thanks
Cheers

Ken:
I opened the relay settings in an attempt to make sure relaying wasn't
the problem. You're right, of course, about closing down this opening.
I've changed relaying to allow it only from 192.168.1.0 addresses with a
standard subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
The domain I'm using in the "FROM:" field is my company domain. There is
no domain defined on the SMTP server. Our company domain is resolvable
on other servers by other kinds of software. For instance, we use it in
QMAIL and SENDMAIL on several Linux servers. However, this had to be
configured.
I used SMTPDiag and the results were:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Our company domain isn't in the "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"
file on the SMTP server either.
I tried to assign our company domain to the SMTP server by opening the
IIS snap-in then setting the default SMTP server "Properties > Delivery >
Advanced > Fully-qualified domain name" to our company domain.
How does one configure this SMTP server, which is on our network, to send
out emails deposited into the pickup folder with our company domain in
the "FROM:" field? I've searched all over the internet and can't find
out.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi,
You should change your relay settings - you are currently allowing all
machines to relay. Instead only authorised machines should be allowed to
relay.
For messages deposited into the pickup folder, relay settings aren't
enforced/considered, so you should not need to open up the relay
settings.
For your test messages - what domain name are you using in the From:
field? It needs to be a domain name resolvable by the SMTP server.
Cheers

I'm trying to get the SMTP server running on Windows 2003 Server. The
O/S is completly patched. I have the following text file:
v- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -v

Hello:
This is a test message.
^- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -^
The text file is dropped in the "C:\inetpub\mailroot\Pickup"
sub-directory and immediately is reflected in the "BadMail"
sub-directory along with the ".BDP" and ".BDR" files. The ".BDR" file
looks like:
v- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -v
Unable to deliver this message because the follow error was
encountered: "Error is processing file in pickup directory.".
The specific error code was 0xC00402CE.

My first step was to see if the SMTP server worked. So, I followed the
instructions in the following link:

...and I received an email fine.
I've added "everyone" to the security for "C:\inetpub\mailroot", giving
them full control and propagated these settings to all child objects.
I tried the same thing on my Windows XP Pro settings for IIS and the
same thing happens. About 8 months ago, as I was testing some dbms
software doing email billings, this seemed to work fine writing email
text files to "C:\inetpub\mailroot\Pickup" and I haven't messed with it
since. Now it doesn't work. I'm guessing something occured during one
of the Windows updates that has locked this down.
In IIS I've set relay restrictions to "All except the list below" and
have assigned noone to the "...list below". The "Allow all computers
which successfully authenticate to relay, regardless of the list above"
checkbox is checked. Connection control is set to "all except the list
below" and, again, noone is assigned to the "...list below".
I've contacted several MSCEs and they can't figure this out either.
Can anyone help me figure out how to make the SMTP server work?
Thanks,
Bill
