I already allowed smtp and pop3 ports in my PIX Firewall Configuration but it still doesn't connect.

In my testing server it works fine but when i uploaded it in my windows 2003 server with a pix firewall it doesn't work.

Can somebody tell me whats the problem. How can i fix the problem?

You can check whether SMTP and POP3 connections are allowed or not on your Windows 2003 server with a pix firewall if you configure Outlook Express to use the same settings you specified in your application powered by MailBee SMTP Object and try to send and receive mail. Please note, you should try Outlook Express on your Windows 2003 server with a pix firewall.

Perhaps, POP3 and SMTP ports are blocked by standard Windows 2003 firewall, could you please check its configuration too? Also, some antivirus software like Symantec Antivirus can block some network connections.

Also, it can be helpful if you enable logging SMTP session into a file in MailBee SMTP Object. A log file contains much useful information that can help to understand the cause of any error occurred in MailBee SMTP/POP3/IMAP4 Objects. You can enable logging as follows:

Code:

Dim oSmtp 

Set oSmtp = CreateObject("MailBee.SMTP") 

oSmtp.EnableLogging = True 

oSmtp.LogFilePath = "C:\my_log.txt" 

oSmtp.ClearLog

Please make sure your application has "write" permission for the specified location.

Alex

Thank you for the reply. I already solved the problem. I discovered that the email server that i was using uses a different port for a secure login.

Thanks again!
