I am struggling with this problem from yesterday.
What I have done so far?
I have used the code to send an email using local smtp server. Code is(C#.Net) Here.
I can telnet the localhost on port 25.
When I telnet: “220 DomainName Microsoft6 ESMTP Mail Service, Version 6.0.3790.3959 Ready at Date Time ”
When I try to send the email, there are no errors in the code and code gets executed successfully without any error.
Errors:
When I check in the eventviewer, the error is : Message Delivery to Host 74.125.159.27 failed while delivering to the remote domain gmail.com for the following reason. The remote server did not respond to a connection attempt.
I know there is error in my SMTP Server Setup, I have not set it up properly. How do I Trouble shoot it.
I have downloaded a smtpdiag.exe from microsoft but, It doesn’t do anything when clicking on .exe file loads up and disappears.
Resolutions Please?
Please help me how do I troubleshoot it. If you need more information please ask me, I will provide but try to help me
Thank you.
You are sending emails through IIS SMTP Server right?
And you are sending to your gmail address?
How OFTEN do you send them? Google as a kind of spam protection that fakes that the servers is not responding if an IP address tries to send too many emails at once.
There is a thread here at SO about it. But I can’t seem to find it.
