Hi Bill,
Thanks for the response. I have checked with our network/email person
and he assured me that the email server is set to relay mail. Also, we
are receiving some emails from the Sharepoint server, i.e. when an
alert is set on a document library. So, I am sure that is working.

Below is the only thing that I see in the log that pertains to alerts:
11/09/04 15:40:59:360 UNK 00000000 00000A6C Alerts are active for the
following site: Site Name: 'USASMDC Portal' Site ID: SMTP Server:
'smdcml04.(Normal)' Loaded templates: D:\Program Files\SharePoint
Portal Server\DATA\Alerts\1033\AlertAutoDeactivationNotification.xsl
D:\Program Files\SharePoint Portal
Server\DATA\Alerts\1033\AlertResultNotification.xsl D:\Program
Files\SharePoint Portal
Server\DATA\Alerts\1033\AlertCreationConfirmation.xsl D:\Program
Files\SharePoint Portal
Server\DATA\Alerts\1033\AlertNewsLetterNotification.xsl
11/09/04 15:40:59:360 UNK 00000000 00000A6C AppDomain:
SPSNotificationService.exe

I have been looking in the Resource Kit and reads "Users can create
alerts to track lists, list items, document libraries and documents
within a site." It does not start folders within a document library
which makes me think that Sharepoint does not have this capability. Is
this possible? Could you verify? If so, there is not use in pursuing
this problem.

Thanks again for the help.
