(Sending Mail using Account 1 (2007-12-10T08:41:06). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it).)I have searched a whole lot of web and nothing nothing nothing.Any help is welcomeRegardsParesh Motiwala |

| your SMTP server is probably not configured to allow unauthenticated users to send email...but that's just a guess..._______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenpSSMS Add-in that does a few things: www.ssmstoolspack.com |

| sorry, I should have clarified first time around. It was working for the past whole year, it just stopped about 10 days ago. Nothing from my side has changed. The only feeling I have is having to re-install SMTP, but was hoping for a better solution.RegardsParesh MotiwalaBoston, USA |
