cheers Norman,
I've been using my ISPs SMTP server just fine, but I wanted to include a
condition in my code to use the local SMTP server for testing locally.
127.0.0.1 worked fine! thanks to everyone else who replied also.

Ben

Hi Ben

I know that as part of the IIS install SMTP services can be installed, in
which case you can probably use 127.0.0.1 or localhost as your SMTP server,
AFAIK you don't need to use portnumber. But I'm just flying off the top of
my head with that one. Alternatively just use your ISP's SMTP server.
