We've been running our Forum for almost 3 years, and have never had any email problems. Now, out of the blue, we're getting the "I could not connect to the SMTP Server" error message. No UBB settings have been changed. We recently applied the most recent Microsoft SP. However, all other software that sends email works fine. Relay is set correctly.
I see that this problem has cropped up for a number of other people (about a dozen forum submissions refer to it) - yet I don't see any acknowledgement that there is a problem, and a fix.
Can someone who has fixed this provide an answer?
