SMTP Error

[Latha Rajeev]

Hi,
I have an application which sends out mails(using CDO),
the SMTP Server being a machine which is one the same
network. Most times, the mails are sent out successfully
but every once in a while, the app reports the following
error:
"The message could not be sent to the SMTP server. The
transport error code was 0x800ccc0b. The server response
was not available.".
Also at times i get the following error:"The transport
lost its connection to the server."

Any idea why i keep getting these errors.?

I have a deadline approaching pretty fast, plz HELP...

Hello Latha,

The error message "The transport error code was 0x800ccc0b. The server
response was not available."

Means: Server is busy.

If we use cdoSendUsingPort in CDOSYS to send mail rapidly, it may lock up
application.


The resolution is to use the default cdoSendUsingPickup directory, and
allow the local SMTP service to route the mail. cdoSendUsing pickup will
take up to 30 seconds to complete its communication with the mailserver per
mail connection. cdoSendUsingPickup, can put out mass mails because it only
creates a file I/O file into the local store.

I suggest you try this method to send out meail. For details, please check

Hope it helps.
