How do I configure my SMTP server to allow emails to be sent from my web site?

Hi,

The computer I have as a web and mail server is running Windows Server 2003. I want to configure my server to allow members of my web site to send e-mails from a form I provide using the SMTP Service on my server. I have tried many different things, but none have worked. The web site I am using uses ASP.NET 2.0 and C#. When I try to send a e-mail, this is the error message I recieve: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine. It seems to me that it might be the way I am authenticating my username and password, but could it be something wrong with the way my server allows access to the SMTP server? What settings do I need to change to allow remote access to the SMTP service via my web site? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks

Here is the coding I have on my page to submit the e-mail:

MailAddress from = new MailAddress([ADDRESS], [NAME]);
MailAddress to = new MailAddress([ADDRESS], [NAME]
MailAddress copy = new MailAddress([ADDRESS], [NAME]);

MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to);
message.Subject = "Using the SmtpClient class.";
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
message.Body = @"Using this feature, you can send an e-mail message from an application very easily.";
message.CC.Add(copy);

NetworkCredential authInfo = new NetworkCredential([USERNAME], [PASSWORD]);
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient([IP], 25);
client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
client.Credentials = authInfo;
client.Send(message);

I left out some things because they are sensitive. They are replace with [Something].

Eric

If no one jumps in here try asking in the NET forum.
