Windows Server Not Sending Mail
Mar 24, 2009I am using Shopping Script, There is again constant problem of 'Helpdesk notification' not being send to Admin email.
Sometimes Helpdesk notification emails comes, sometimes not.
In order to start getting Helpdesk notification email, i need to restart my server and it starts working.
It means there is nothing wrong with Shopping script, as it starts working as soon as server is restarted.
I am running on Windows 2003 server, with IIS support.
This is the reply i got from Script support
------------------------------------------------------------
It's not in our compatibility but we can propose a couple of advice to you:
1) You can test the php function mail() which is responsible for this process;
For this you may create a simple script with the following line:
mail($mail_to, $mail_subject, $mail_body, $headers_string)
Of course, you need to past your own real values here. Then you need to launch this script every minute since the server restarted and follow the logs of what is happening there.
2) As we see you are using Microsoft FTP Service. The most probable reason for this is the issue with windows mail function - either the service itself is not reliable or it is just set incorrectly. Our administrator says that the issue with mail sending on this server happens quite often. So you can try to google the problem with the queue of windows mail function, for sure there must be some more advice as to how to resolve this.
It is possible that there is set a restriction on the order of the sending mail so when the queue is full, the mail stops sending.
Anyway that's all that we can advise you on this case because if the notification is sent at all then it means this function is working in our shopping cart and the issue is with something else.
Helm Windows Server Mail
Aug 2, 2007I currently have a reseller account on a windows server powered by helm. The provider currently has a mail problem which has resulted in several of my emails going walk abouts.
What I want to know is, is it possible to redirect my mail and bypass it from the problem mail server to another email address such as my ISP's?
Can I use the mail forward option in helm, or does mail still go through the mail server?
Can I create a new mx record on the windows server to point mail to the ISP email address or will that still go through the mail server?
Or do I have to create a mx record with my domain registrar?
My domain is with godaddy and it setup with nameservers.

Windows Mail Server - How To Clear Queue
Mar 27, 2009i'm running a windows 2003 server to host a number of websites.
unfortunatly it looks like i didn't correctly protect the SMTP mail server
i checked the 'badmail' folder in the inetpub and found there were upwards of 250,000 bounced mails there... some spammers were obviously having a field day with my smtp server...
i've now changed the settings so that realys are only accepted from 127.0.0.1 and anonymous access is now disallowed.
my problem is that when i start up the SMTP server again spam is continuing to be sent out because the Queue folder is apparently full of junk waiting to go out...
i've tried entering this folder but the computer hangs, presumably because there are so many there...
i've tried deleting and renaming the folder but even with the smtp server turned off i get an 'Access Denied' error...
what can i do to flush or empty the queue folder ?

View 4 Replies View RelatedConfiguring Mail Features Of Windows Server 2003
Jan 23, 2008Please pardon the "newbie" nature of this post. (Due to circumstances outside my control, I've had management of a Windows Server 2003 VPS thrust upon me, and I'm feeling like a fish out of water!)
I have finally abandoned any hope of getting phpmailer to work with Joomla 1.0.13, so I've decided to configure the POP3/SMTP features of my server so that I can use Joomla's SMTP mail service. (Joomla's SMTP option is limited to port 25 and cannot use ssl.) Anyway, I've tried to set up my POP3 and SMTP services, but I must be doing something wrong. I have both services set up with my registered domain name -- and a check of the DNS in the SMTP setup comes back OK. However, if I try to use my domain name as my SMTP and POP servers in Outlook Express, the program times out while "looking for host." If I enter "localhost" or my IP address (numeric) as my mail servers, I get a dialog box asking me to log in. However, when I try to log in -- using my administrator name & password -- it doesn't work.
I should probably stress that I'm using SERVER 2003, not an EXCHANGE server for this. I have need for one, whole mailbox to make my stupid contact form work, which is why I'm doing this in the first place. If this doesn't work, I'm going to create my own contact form in html, throw it into a joomla content page, and use the phpmailer script to send it manually. Not ideal, as it will always go to the same mailbox, but I'm getting to the point where I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!

Mar 31, 2014I have Plesk Panel installed in server 1 and mailenable in server2. I disabled mail service in server 1 and configured external mail (by the way, I cannot start it back) - Tools & Settings -> Mail -> External SMTP Server to my server 2.
Every contact form created with Presence Builder never worked, and I do not know why. Is there any work around? When Plesk is going to handle e-mail forms with a PHP file?

Windows 2008 Versus Windows 2003 Server
May 26, 2009With Windows 2003 server, there are comprehensive lists of what you need to do to secure the server before use. For Windows 2008, I wonder is there such a list? Or is it true as what I heard from Microsoft that it is already secured out of the box?
Anyone has any resources on the hardening or preparation of 2008 for server hosting uses?
