I don't think that's waht the issue is as it should work with an IP address.

I've had this same problem on my Windows 2003 Server and I simply could not get CDO to run either through COM or through the .Net wrapper for it.


CDO is sketchy as best for a server application, but for a desktop app that goes to many people it's probably not a good choice. Maybe that's why it's scoped for the System.Web namespace...
