How to send email from a frontpage form using a different SMTP server on the same network?

B

Bill Nguyen

I would like to use the SMTP server on another server (named ExchangeServer)
to send email from a form created by Frontpage. The form is run on an
IISserver 6.0, but I want to disable the SMTP server on this IISServer for
security reason. Is this possible?
Thanks
Bill

Intranet or Internet?

Its going to be possible but you'll likely get much more insight into
how by posting to one of the many microsoft.public.exchange
newsgroups.

Sure. You need to use a CDO method instead of CDONTS to use a server
other than the same physical box, though I don't know what FrontPage
will use. Might try a FrontPage group.

I found the solution.
I setup the SMTP server information in Frontpage extension 2002 pointing to
the other SMTP server I would like to use. Since they're in the same
network, it works fine.
Thanks for all the help anyway.
