Objective: users fill in form on intranet web page and results are forwarded as mail via the SMTP server on the same IIS server to mailboxes on our Exchange 5.5 server on same LAN and subnet.
Problem: Cannot seem to configure the SMTP bit correctly. The only error messages logged are error ID423 Virtualserver1: routing extension was not specified. Delivery to mailboxes is not available. Which according to technet is just info to be ignored ! The only other error noted was when putting in the domain info under MMC snapin for SMTP, there was a specified path not found error that came up – default local domain is as found in DNS properties on TCP/IP in Control Panel, Network on the IIS server and you can browse to the drop mail directory – so could this be due to something in the registry conflicting because I have installed NT to C drive but installed IIS and SMTP to D drive???
The web pages are constructed with Frontpage 2000 which reports that Frontpage server extensions have not been configured to send e-mail, when I attempt to save the form field settings to post results via email.
Additional Information:
Standalone NT4 server SP4, IIS version 4 (NT Option Pack)
Exchange 5.5 SP3 holds all mailboxes for domain eguser@xyz.com, although the domain is hosted by external ISP and we only have a DNS caching server on our LAN.
I havent configured any host files. There is a WINS server on our LAN. Its all NT, no Win2000 servers.
Thanks in advance, John.
Ihave tracked down Q174406 and edited the file frontpg.ini on the server with the SMTPHost setting and restarted the services. No joy. johnm@essex.tec.org.uk
