- Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP, version 3.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you run the SMTPGATE.EXE program, the following error occurs:
ERROR SMTPPUT: 201- X - X - Failure submitting message to mail database
[tx] 552 Error in local delivery
CAUSE
=====
The FILES= setting in your CONFIG.SYS file is set too low. The SMTPGATE.EXE
program requires a large number of file handles; therefore, if the FILES=
statement is set too low, the program cannot run properly.
RESOLUTION
==========
Edit your CONFIG.SYS file and increase the FILES= statement; initially set
FILES= to 40, and then increase the number as needed.
MORE INFORMATION
================
In MS-DOS, the default value for the FILES= statement is 8. The highest possible
value is 255.
