Hello,

Using your SMTP component to connect to a remote SMTP server is failing.

We get the following message in the log:
Socket.Connect returned code -6

The error code is 4.

Some background information:
1) I wrote a script to test the component and I was able to send an email
2) I then used similar code in my web application and it fails (It looks like all the config settings are the same)

Looks like possibly a permissions issue...Can you tell me what "Socket.Connect returned code -6" means to you?

Great product by the way!

Regards,
Francisco Imperio

These error codes mean the specified mail server was found, but the connection was not established.

It looks like there is some firewall or antivirus software, preventing connections to the mail server. It means, PC having your test script installed is able to connect to the mail server, while PC having your
web application installed is not.

Thus, you should configure firewall or antivirus software installed on your web server to allow connections to the mail server.

Regards,
Alex
