First, check to make sure your stmp server is setup to relay messages for you. This is done by opening the properties of your SMTP virtual server in IIS.
Click the Access Tab
Click Relay Restrictions
Select All except the list below
Check Allow all coputer which successfully authenticate to relay, regardless of the list above
Click OK
Click Authentication
Select the method of Authentication
*Depending on your security needs you may need to modify these selections.
Also check your web.config file and set <customErrors mode="Off" /> this will allow your errors to display on client machines. This is good for developement, but remember to set it to "RemoteOnly" or "On" when it goes live (so users don't see ulgy error messages.)
If you get the CDO.Message error it's not helpful at all. you will need to cycle through the inner exceptions as well. place this in the your routine
this may help solve your issue. You may also need to authenticate to your smtp server. To do this you will need .Net Framework 1.1
Hope this helps

Response.Write= ex.InnerException.ToString & "<BR>"
End While
