Also, set your "from" property.

The server rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server response
was: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for femi@yahoo.co.uk
this is strange, I used a similar form with cdonts and asp and
I don't get this error, it's on the same server, as follows:

Set objCDONTSMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objCDONTSMail.From = test@yahoo.co.uk
objCDONTSMail.To = femi@yahoo.co.uk
objCDONTSMail.subject = "ghghghg"
objCDONTSMail.Body = "saassasa"
objCDONTSMail.Send

This works, so why the aspx scripts is unable to relay?

That's an error from the SMTP server saying it can't deliver the message. 
This is nothing to do with your code per se.  Are you specifying an SMTP 
server to send the mail through?  It seems that server can't relay the 
message on.

I am not, but neither do I with old fashioned cdonts, so are you saying
there can be a sutuation where cdonts knows where smtp is and
aspdotnet doesn't know? I'd rather not specify this, so that it will pick
up what is appropriate without my intervention (portable script).

If not, how can I find which smtp cdonts is using, so that I can install
this info into my asp.net script.

Thanks in advance

Downloadable examples for 1.1 and 2.0 can be found at:

.................

There are different rules depending on which smtp server you're trying to 
use.

The downloadable code samples will make this more clear.

Thank you, but no answers there,


My cdonts object on the same host does relay to any address

WebMail however, (on same host) doesn't replay, but now I
found that it will relay locally, i.e. back to myself.

Since cdonts does work, my logic tells me it can't be an smtp
issue.
