Local SMTP Server

[agmorgan]

I am trying to write a legitimate application for work but need to test it out.
The IT dept is crap at getting back at me so I gave it a go myself.

I have IIS installed including the SMTP server, but I still cant send any mail through my app.
Is it possible for my IT department to restrict SMTP mail?

I just want to connect to my SMTP server on my PC from my PC and send an email to myself (which will go via the Exchange server at work).

[ALL]

why dont you use sockets to send the mail? (vb you would use somthing like WinSock, VB.NET [i believe] has it's own I/O Sockets)

That is what I am doing.
I am wondering if the SMTP is configured wrongly or if I am typing in the wrong address
Is there a default name for your local SMTP server using IIS?
