Thanks for your help.
From the dos shell,is there a way i can ping the machine to find out what the smtp server name, userid, and password are?
I don't know the syntax to get what I'm looking for.


>Perhaps they reconfigured something on the E-mail server? One common anti-spam strategy is to close TCP port 25. You could do the following:
>* Use ping and see if you're able to establish contact with server (though sometimes ping will fail due to how they've got firewalls configured). If you get a response, you know there is something there listening (as a mentioned earlier, failure doesn't mean that there isn't anything listening).
>* Use telnet to see if you can establish a connection -- use TCP port 25. If it succeeds you should see a "banner" with which the E-mail server will identify itself. If you get "connection refused" then they've likely closed that port and you'll have to find out what alternate port they've configured.
