[dba-VB] Ping server port

List,

I'm been having a bit of a time getting a component that sends mail from a web form to work.  It's dll based and works on other sites of ours.  My boss suggested I ping the server to see if the SMTP port (25) is open (I haven't gotten a straight answer from our hardware staff).  Can anyone tell me how to do so?

Thanks,

Jim DeMarco
