I'm not sure, but if you can't connect then there's no connection to this server at the socket level. A connection is attemtpted but no packet response is received which seems to indicate that nothing is there listening on that port.

What are you using for a domain name or IP address?

>After shifting my Server program to my own, newly installed webserver machine the sendmail() of wwipstuff.dll does not run, but returns "-3 - Couln't connect to Server 127.0.0.1". I have configured a very simple SMTP server, allowed anonymous access and don't use any authentification.
