Improving Performance
In order to improve the performance of some e-mail services the wait for replay period has been made configurable through a Windows Registry setting. This was necessary because some services are slower to reply than they should be. If you encounter this condition for SMTP you can add the following setting into the Registry:
[AWXMMX64\MMXMail]
TimeOut=0
UseLocalIP=0
DefinedIPServer=12.15.133.9
-
TimeOut=0 - sets timeout to wait for SMTP replay 0 = wait forever
-
UseLocalIP=0 - If set to 1 system will use local ip name in HELO message. Only active if user name and password not set AND DefinedIPServer not set.
-
DefinedIPServer=12.15.133.9 - If set will use string as name / local ip in HELO message. Only active if user name and password not set. Overwrites use of UseLocalIP setting
These settings are part of MMXmailSMTP.EXE
