intermittent CDO.Message.1 error '80040213' problem

[bslintx]

I get this error intermittently. I have cleared cache in browser and have to scratch my head as to why it would be intermittent? Either it can connect....or not...not either or. Please advise. Thanks.

i believe the problem is due to your smtpserver, your server should be something like mail.elaptop.com also you will need a username and password if your smtpserver requires authentication

Steven,

Thnks for the input. Sorry I didn't add on to what is currently set. Under GENERAL tab for smtp properties i have set to all (unassigned) port 25. Under ACCESS tab I have set to Anonymous aceess, so no authentication is required. Undercertificates...I have none...under CONNECTION I have ANY pc able to connect and same for RELAY. I tried to change the elaptop.com(valid DNS name) to mail.elaptop.com and got same results. It makes no sense what-so-ever to me as to why It connects...it does not...does...does not..etc...can someone PLEASE try out thiscodeon their SMTP vitual server and if it works tell me their settings? It would be greatly appreciated. BTW....I had no problem using CDDONT's; however, I'm on an XP Pro box and I don't think I can use that...if I can can someone point me in the right direction?. Again, thanks Steve and to anyone else that can help me out with this head scratcher.

are your sending from your home pc

 

[steven290]

if you are sending from home, change the "sendusing" configuation from 2 to 1 and let us know what happen

Thanks Steve,

It sent directly to queue folder...and stuck there. Change it back to 2 and intermittent connections; however, it sends to the yahoo address when no error occurs. Still scratching head ;-) Anyways, is the a CDO method that's just as easy to put on a LOCAL smptp server and what settings I need to have? I tried the bare basic ones and they all get stuck in queue! Crazy...again, thanks

Brian
