Hey There,
just a quick question regarding web.mail
i have read somewhere that you need to have IIS and the smtp service on the machince in order for web.mail to work.
is this true
i have developed an application which uses our remote mail server and
when the application is installed on a machine without IIS and the smtp service it works fine.
does this mean that all you need to do is specify a correct smtp server and it will work fine
I think (although I'm not 100% sure) that you only need IIS and the SMTP service if you don't specify an SMTP server. If you do then you're good to go, I think.

i think but i am not sure that :
the web.mail is working fine because you are calling your remote mail server functions and this remote server has iis and smtp services installed for sure.
you are not using the local machine as the mail server
that is what i think, but i am not 100% sure

I am 100% sure and he is 100% correct ;)
You only need an SMTP Server on the network somewhere.
but our mail server is not on our network, there is no dedicated mail server.
i was confused whether or not it was using my local smtp anyway or was it acutally goin to the remote mail server.
I think, but I am not 100% sure, that I am being made fun of. I'll thank you to let me know when you're making fun of me so I can be 100% sure. :)
Because it's using your remote mail server. That's almost equivalent.Quote:
