Hi all

I was trying to configure database mail in sqlserver 2005.
After configure everything, i am getting the below err.


The mail could not be sent to the recipients because
of the mail server failure.
(Sending Mail using Account 1 (2008-10-09T17:29:35).
Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server.
(No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it). )

can anyone tell me what i have to do?

thanks
kmr
