your isp only allows one smtp connection per sever, so you can not do
concurrent emails. setup a relay SMTP server on your iis box.

Hi:

Using the sMTP class and my ISP as smtp server, I sometimes get the
following message:

"The message could not be sent to the SMTP server. The transport error code
was 0x800ccc60. The server response was 69.140.46.229 has too many
connections ( 2 ) on sccrmhc12 "

Does anyone know what this means?

Thanks,
Charlie
 
Thanks, Bruce. I knew it had to have something to do with that.

I have tried setting up virtual server, but can't get it to work. This is
why I had to point it at my ISP's SMTP server. Do you know of any good
references on setting up local smtp server?

i would say install smtp service as a part of iis.
look into relaying. its under properties if i remember correctly (did that
last ages ago)
there you can specify the server you would like to forward all the email
requests to.
