SMTP Error

I keep getting the error below in the logs of a DNN 3.1.1 install. I thought it was caused by DNN not being able to send emails. However, I have successfully sent a test email from the Host Settings page of the install.

Anyone got any ideas what else to look for?

InnerException: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object.
Message: System.Web.HttpException: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object. ---> System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted. at System.RuntimeType.InvokeDispMethod(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Object target, Object[] args, Boolean[] byrefModifiers, Int32 culture, String[] namedParameters) at System.RuntimeType.InvokeMember(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object target, Object[] args, ParameterModifier[] modifiers, CultureInfo culture, String[] namedParameters) at System.Web.Mail.LateBoundAccessHelper.CallMethod(Object obj, String methodName, Object[] args) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Web.Mail.LateBoundAccessHelper.CallMethod(Object obj, String methodName, Object[] args) at System.Web.Mail.CdoSysHelper.Send(MailMessage message) at System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(MailMessage message) at DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.SendMail(String MailFrom, String MailTo, String Cc, String Bcc, MailPriority Priority, String Subject, MailFormat BodyFormat, Encoding BodyEncoding, String Body, String Attachment, String SMTPServer, String SMTPAuthentication, String SMTPUsername, String SMTPPassword)

TIA

Re: SMTP Error

Your application appears to be restarting in the middle of your send.

Re: SMTP Error

System.Threading.ThreadAbortException will happen for only two reasons that I know of. One is because the application restarts, and the other is if there is a response.redirect called with response.end set to true.

DNN automatically handles the response.redirect / response.end error internally, so I'm assuming it is an app restart.

Try sending, then checking the log right away. Does it always have that error? If so, do the e-mails all get sent but you still get the error in the log?
