IIS SMTP & Exchange problem

Hello,

I am having a problem with IIS and Exchange and wondered if anyone could help me..

I am using a mass email program (WebWiz) to send out a daily news letter to people who use our exchange mail server and others that are not.. We have had to set up a limit on each mailbox size. Which I belive is the problem.. When I try to send out the dail bulletin IIS stops sending on the first mailbox that I am assuming is full. I get this error in the event log

Message delivery to the remote domain 'domain name' failed for the following reason: The connection was dropped by the remote host

Is there a way to set up IIS to by pass any mailbox that is full and continue sending the rest of the message?

More info..

This mass mail program resides on my webserver IIS 5.0 and relays the email to our exchange server..

Thanks!

Sounds like a question for your mailer software, not IIS.

How so doug? If the exchange server tells the webserver the mailbox is full the webserver will sit there and retry the emailbox a few minutes later, whatever the retry time is set for.. My question is.. How to get the webserver to continue sending the email to other mailboxes and come back later to the ones it couldnt send to? or Would I need some special program to do that?

How this all works is up to the program code, not the SMTP server. IIS SMTP works pretty much like any other SMTP server. If your program stops on an error email address it is probably running synchronously, i.e., waiting for a response from the mail server for each email. If the code quits on an error, then the code needs to be modified.

You can look around at your SMTP settings in the IIS service manager, perhaps some configuration setting is there that will apply but I don't know what it would be.

Take a look at the "smart host" setting in the IIS smtp server.
