CDO message not sending email - no error generated

[hltaylor]

I have email forms on my website that are not generating email (or the email is not being sent by the server).

Forms were updated from CDONT to CDO earlier this year and everything worked fine. Recently I noticed no emails were being received when forms sent. Testing goes OK - no errors generated.

My server admin turned on the SMTP server logging, but I don't know what to look for in the logs.... help!

If this is still a problem try running a test vb script directly from the server which uses the same code as your web page to send an e-mail. This should give you an error message where your asp page won't.

If you use McAfee on the server you're using for the smtp it's also worth checking the Access Protection properties on the virus scan console for the following:

'Prevent mass mailing worms from sending mail'

if this is ticked and is set to port 25 (the default smtp port) then it will prevent your mail being sent, Either use a different port or turn this off.

Hope this helps,
