I am using Indy 9, BCB5 and Windows 98. When an application thau uses
TIdSMTP tries to send an email in a running Windows XP computer it
cannot find remote server. If we go to a computer running Windows 98
computer it does the job. It is right to thionk that Indy 9 SMTP does
not runs on Win XP or there is somthing I did wrong? If I compile
application in a running XP computer it would solve the problem? Must I
download Indy 10 to fix that bug? If so, how I uninstall Indy 9 from BCB
and install Indy 10? Thanks for your answers.

What is the exact errormessage ?

Can you send an email with Thunderbird/Outlook on that XP computer ?

Don't know. XP comes with a Firewall which win98 does not have.
Is the firewall preventing this ? Or some 'security program' that
does not allow connections to port 25 ?

Dear Hans, you are right. There was a firewall in that computer that
prevented
messages to be sent without giving any feedback. When deactivated message
could be sent. Thank you for your time spent with us.
