How to set SMTP Host parameter???

R

Rudy

I am new to FrontPage Programming. I am trying to save the
results of my feedback form to both a file and send it to
me email id.

The results get stored to my file but are not sent to my
email id. The log file says that I need to setup the
SMTPHost parameter.

I am currently testing my Web Site locally my server being
PWS.

I tried setting SMTPHost=127.0.0.1 but get the following
error msg: Cannot connect to SMTP host '127.0.0.1'.

So how do I figure out the name or IP address of the host
running an SMTP Server???

Rudy,

You'll need a functional SMTP server daemon on your machine or at your host.
The SMTP address of your host can be found in your email client options,
however, it will be very doubtful if they will allow you to access it in
this situation (spam).

If you're on W2K Pro or > then the OS contains an intrinsic SMTP server that
you can install and run.
