Recently i set up a M Daemon email server on a windows 2003 standard server. everything seems right. But when i configure the email client with the email server host name to send out emails, the email client is not sending the email but returns with socket error: 10060. what would be the problem. Have to do any setting anywhere..? I assume that the email client config has no problem.. any help is greatly needed...

"socket error: 10060" there is probably another application on the system utilizing port 25. Good chance it may be IIS, since it has a SMTP component as well - which can be disabled in this case.

  • Try "telnet 127.0.0.1 25" (without the quotes) at the command prompt to see what actually answers. Most typical SMTP host/servers will display a SMTP banner which may provide clues as to its identity.
