Hi, Not sure if this is the right discussion group to ask this but here it goes. I have tons of programs sending hundreds of emails (.pdfs and .csvs) everyday through our SMTP email server to people across the globe. I am using Base SAS 9.1.3. Almost randomly, I am experiencing this "Email Service Not Available" error at times and it seems to be much worse with my users in Europe. I contacted SAS support and my corporate IT support, but they were useless as the replies were "Email Server problem not my problem" and "SAS problem not my problem". I am nearly 100% certain it must be a timeout issue in that SAS attempts to hit the email server and gives up after 30 seconds based on my google research. Anyone have ideas to fix this problem? I am going to 9.2 in the next month or so. thanks,
