Since going to WIN2000 Server from WINNT, our web page which uses asp JMail.GetMessageBodyFromURL(strReferencePage) with
strReferencePage(" & Request.ServerVariables("LOCAL_ADDR") & ":" & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_PORT")& strPathOnly & "Approval_Instructions.asp?RequestID=" & Session("REQ_ID") & "&email=yes" )
This fails as the page cannot be found. Our support indicated we cannot use the TCPIP address in WIN2000 because multiple websites share one address.

So we changed it to:
strReferencePage = " & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") & strPathOnly & "Approval_Instructions.asp?RequestID=" & Session("REQ_ID") & "&email=yes"
& now it's been failing with
jmail.SMTPMail error '8000ffff'
Connection timed out

Are we doing something wrong ?
 
You are not supplying a port for the SMTP server in your updated code. You could test this by appending ":25" to the end of the server name and see if you get the same error...

Code:
strReferencePage = "[URL unfurl="true"]http://"[/URL] & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") & ":" & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_PORT") & strPathOnly & "Approval_Instructions.asp?RequestID=" & Session("REQ_ID") & "&email=yes"

You may want to output that to the page and see what it gives you first... since you may need to add some extra slashes ( / ).

I added the :25 & output the value & get
jmail.SMTPMail error '8000ffff'
Error while processing Socket opperation: Connection refused
/Request/ApprovalConfirmationEmailA.asp, line 212

When I change it back to port 80 I get:

jmail.SMTPMail error '8000ffff'
Connection timed out
/Request/ApprovalConfirmationEmailA.asp, line 212
