CDO_send can't communicate with smtp server
 

The following code has been running for several months but now it fails
to send with the following error:

"The transport failed to connect to the server"

My smtp server appears to be ok because I can send mail, maybe a MS
security patch?

thanks,

Hi Art

I have changed my settings in the Trend-Micro firewall to avoid your error for example.
I don't believe you have to change the settings in the XP firewall ?

Ron,
First, let me thank you for your code, it has worked like a champ for a
long time.
I'm running Windows 2000 Pro and to my knowledge I don't have any
firewall setup on the workstation. Is there a way to test the
connection to the smtp server?

thanks,

I was having trouble with a similar routine. I suspected the Windows XP SR2 upgrade,
but if you're running Windows 2000, that probably wasn't it. Now I guess I need to
check ZoneAlarm.

CDO_send can't communicate with smtp server
 

Hi Ron:
I am trying to use your code, but fails with error message..

"The transport failed to connect to the server"
I tried at home where I use comcast hsi.
--------------------------
With Flds

..Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2

..Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") =
"smtp.comcast.net"

..Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25
.Update
End With
----------------


any advice is appreciated. Don't we need a user id + pw to use comcast. I
am on internet assures this?

hi MVM

I don't know about comcast.
Have you check your firewal ? (give Excel permission to send)
