Have you tried using telnet to verify your server and mail are correctly configured?
Try this: c:\> telnet 192.168.200.43 25 ehlo mail from:the...@h**********a.com recpt to: t...@h***********a.com data This is a test message The recipient should be something valid. If this sends out email from your Windows server then the smtp relay is working. In that case please attach ehlo output. If this doesn't send out email, then the problem is not with your web2py code, but with your mail setup somewhere. -- Adi On Jul 27, 7:29 pm, Andrew Buchan <andyha...@gmail.com> wrote: > Massimo, > > 192.168.200.43 is a different windows box setup as a domino server, and the > smtplib example in original post works fine connecting to that server.
