Hi,
I wrote mailing service code for my Windows Application. When I was trying
to send a mail thru my application, an Error occurs only for Windows NT
saying that "Could not create 'CDONTS.NewMail' object". It works fine with
Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Could some one pls help to get rid of the
error?

Thanks in advance,
Kiran

Are you using System.Web.Mail namespace? I believe that only supports
Windows 2000, XP Professional and Windows 2003 server family (check the
docs for the MailMessage class).
