Have you configured the FP extensions to use SMTP server, by entering it's IP address. You may need
to also run a Server Health Check on the extensions.
Try creating a default feedback form with an email address, and see it that works directly on the
server via
http://localhost in FP after doing the above.
You should post this to the Windows Server newsgroup for setting up the SMTP server, etc.
