    Using Local Pickup for mail on Win200 server

    My Actinic v4 site is running happily on a unix based server with no problems - using "localhost" as the mail-server entry in the network configuration setup.
    We are moving the site over to another server, running on Windows 2000 server with Perl 5 installed and all again works fine - except for the mail settings.
    The server does not allow any mail relaying at all.
    All applications running on the server have to "Send HTML Formatted Mail Using CDO for Windows 2000 and the Local Pickup Directory"
    This works fine for other applications but I cannot see how to set up Actinic to utilise this method.
    I would guess there will be a change of sub-routine required somewhere.
    Can anyone help ?

    Regards,
    David Sargeant

    It's in Actinic.pm (in your Site1 folder) see "sub SendRichMail".

    Also you might want to read my patch on "using SendMail..." see www.rouxel.cwc.net/actinicstuff.html as this patches that routine to use the Mail::Mailer module and in doing so considerably simplifies the routine.
