Mail

[Jim Heavey]

Hello, I am wanting to send Email from my server. I did some coding of this
ins school a couple of years ago, so I do not think there is much to the
coding, but was wondering how to go about setting up the server for this.
What exactly needs to be done to configure my server so that I can send
Email? Is there some way I can tell if I am ready to go or not?

I was also wondering if there was some way I can get ahold of the directory
of EMAIL ID's on the Microsoft Exchange. Anythin I need to do from a
configuration standpoint and is there an example of code which I could use to
see how this is done?

If I can do this myself, then great, if not, I can utilize some server
administrator, but I want to make sure I can explain what it is I need.

Any assistance you can provide, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Jim,

To send email, all that is needed is an SMTP server. If you're running
Windows XP pro or Windows Server 2003, or Windows 200 Pro, IIS comes with an
SMTP server, which you can install and run on the machine. And you're right:
it is pretty simple. "S" in "SMTP" stands for "Simple!"

Interfacing with Exchange is another matter. You may want to ask this on an
Exchange newsgroup.
