SMTP server set to 202.172.123.456 on port 25 with user
***@xxx.xxx.xxx, retry 1 time(s)

Second,
C:\Win32app\Ingr\ABC\export>blat batch.txt -t ***@xxx.xxx.xxx
-s "hello from LN server."
Sending batch.txt to ***@xxx.xxx.xxx
Subject:hello from LN server.
Login name is ***@xxx.xxx.xxx

starting message smtp server

load socket finished in open_smtp_socketError: Can't connect to
mailserver (timed out if winsock.dll error 10060)

Can you telnet to port 25 on 202.172.123.456? What do you get in the log
file if you run
Blat with the -debug and -log options?

Just add "-debug -log log.txt" to the end of your blat command line.

Hey christine,

c> I am using the Blat version 1.8.2 running on the win2k server. I am
c> encountered the following problem.

Any chance of upgrading to the current version? Check the Blat web site
for it.

c> First,
c> C:\Win32app\Ingr\ABC\export>blat -install 202.172.123.456
c> ***@xxx.xxx.xxx 1 25

c> SMTP server set to 202.172.123.456 on port 25 with user
c> ***@xxx.xxx.xxx, retry 1 time(s)

c> Second,
c> C:\Win32app\Ingr\ABC\export>blat batch.txt -t ***@xxx.xxx.xxx
c> -s "hello from LN server."
c> Sending batch.txt to ***@xxx.xxx.xxx
c> Subject:hello from LN server.
c> Login name is ***@xxx.xxx.xxx

c> starting message smtp server
c> in prepare_smtp_message open smtp socket
c> load socket finished in open_smtp_socketError: Can't connect to
c> mailserver (timed out if winsock.dll error 10060)
c> prepare_smtp_message start procedures ret code -1
c> close socketError: Not a socket.

That is indicating the server you specified is not responding as a SMTP
server.

As Christer suggested, try connecting to your server with Telnet. Look
at http://www.blat.net/newdocs/telnet25.html for an example of what to
expect and how to go about it.
