As Curt said. You can't set an smtp server with CDONTS. You could setup a
smarthost in your SMTP settings on your IIS server though. I don't know if
that will help you with what you're trying to do though.

Hello,

CDONTS is proprietary to MS. The only way I know of to set this up is
to configure the SMTP service (under 2000) to a different port than 25
if on the same server, and set your mail server as its smart host. I
haven't dealt with CDONTS in a while, so I can't remember the options
there.

I would recommend VisNetic MailServer from Deerfield,

Thanks folks. That is just what I wanted to know. I don't particularly need
to use a different mail server just wanted to know if you could.
