Problem with SMTP mail program

Ruby
1

Hi,

I took following very simple mail program from one of Ruby site, it is
working fine on my system, but not on other system. The only difference
which i Observed is that on other machine Microsoft Outlook is not
installed.

Please tell me the reason?

msgstr = <<END_OF_MESSAGE
From: Dhiraj G. [email protected]
To: Dhiraj G. [email protected]
Subject: test message
Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2007 16:26:43 +0900
Message-Id: [email protected]

This is a test message.

END_OF_MESSAGE

require 'net/smtp'
Net::SMTP.start('samplemailexchangeserver.arcot.com', 25) do |smtp|
  smtp.send_message msgstr,
                    '[email protected]',
                    '[email protected]'
end

Regards:
Dhiraj

Sounds like a DNS error.

Do you get DNS to that address? I don’t.
