I had the exact same problem with Zope on NT. No matter what I did, I couldn't get Zope to play nice with the SMTP server that comes with IIS 4.0. Eventually I installed another SMTP server, and MAILHOST worked like a charm. If your site isn't incredibly high traffic, Hermes (http://www.alixoft.com/software/hermes.htm) works well, and is free. You'll want to install it as a service, you can find instructions for doing so here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q137890. Another option is to migrate to Win2000/IIS 5.0. The IIS 5.0s SMTP server works with MAILHOST.

hi all, I am currently using the MailHost product in zope to send automatic e-mails from my Zope site, via the companies e-mail server. This was working perfectly on my own machine(Win 98), but when the site was moved onto an NT server I've started getting the following error, without a traceback..
Error Type: SMTPHeloError Error Value: (501, 'Invalid domain name')
Does anybody know what causes this. The server name I've used is correct,and I am able to ping it from my NT server.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Best Regards, Tony.
