SMTP server doens't send mail

<i><b>Originally posted by : Dochera (rustin2@home.com)</b></i><br />Hi I am running iis5 and smtp server supplied with w2k.

I checked all other mail folders, (badmail, queue, route,etc...) but no messages are in those folders, that makes me think the messages are attempting to go out,<br />Maybe I have some settings wrong, I have the host set-up as my network computer name. Anyone have any useful info on proper configuration?!<br /><br />I'm not sure if this could be caused by the smtp server but recently, since I've been testing the server in the last day, My inetinfo.exe file began using 99& of my cpu ALL THE TIME I have searched around for a solution to fixing the problem but haven't found one! The ONLY way I have found to kill the process is <br />to actually un-install WWWserver from the windows setup, I then tried to reinstall the service and the file jumped right back to 100% usage of CPU, Could this have anything at all to do with the smtp server and a mailing error ? Anyone know a solution, I'm about to attempt to reinstall the O.S. and see if that fixes it<br />But any advice would be greatly appreciated<br />

I'm just put a correct data on it and I get SMTP working allright!<br /><br />Start / Programs / Administrative Tools / Computer Management / Services and Applications / Internet Information Services / Default SMTP Virtual Server / (Right mouse click and) Properties / Delivery / Advanced / Fully-qualified domain name: <br /><br />Enter a good value for this item and you are done!<br /><br />It could be: mail.microsoft.com (for instance), or smtp.microsoft.com.<br /><br />You need a real server that do the work but it doesn't have to be yours.<br /><br />I hope this could be useful.<br /><br />Bye.<br /><br />------------<br />Dochera at 2/22/2002 12:00:40 AM<br /><br />Hi I am running iis5 and smtp server supplied with w2k.
