Can not get Project Server to email via smtp

[Steve Morgan]

Has anyone had problems getting Project Server to send
out mail via SMTP? SMTP server is sending and receiving
messages, but it seems that Project Server never sends
out the request even thought they are setup. ie Project
Status Report request.

Hi Steve Morgan,

Make sure port ur Mail Server's port 25 is open & allow
relay. To test that, go to command prompt and type

Telnet <smtpservername> 25

if it connects its fine or you need check with ur system
admin for correct SMTP Server name or IP or whether 25 is
the port of mail server.

Alternatively, ther would be errors in ur Project Server's
Application log. like

"
File: C:\Proj10\WebClient\source\utility\pjsmtpemail.cpp
Line: 391
Error Number: 0x80040213
Description: Assert Detected. The error code was also
included.
___________________________________

Component: CDO.Message.1
Description: The transport failed to connect to the
server. "

Which will confirm that SMTPSERVER is a problem.

Hope it helps, let me know.

Regards

Sriram
