Hi, You obviously know everthing from your email regarding Visual Basic but... Port 110 is popmail and has nothing to do with Sendmail (unless something has changed in Sendmail in the last three years since I abandoned it and its 500 page configuration manual, I actaully spent a whole Suckot vacation once reading the dammened thing) which is an SMTP client port 25. You do not need to scan just telnet to the port telnet machine_name 25
If it does not answer you have a problem. Read the RFC http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc821.html before doing this and then you can talk with the smtp client manually. On the other hand you should probably switch to qmail or the Standford program (who's name I forgot) qmail which I run is much easier to setup and does not have a track record of being a big security hole..
