Author IIS 5.1 windows xp mail getting stuck in queue folder

What is going on? I am trying to send mail through smtp through IIS 5.1
I'm very new to this crap but I can't send mail through telnet or smtp.
IIS keeps the mail in the queue folder and just sits there.. It's using
port 25 and port 25 is open because I can connect to it through telnet.


Any ideas? Do I have to setup a domain for this? I just want to send
outgoing mail .. I am basically going to host my own web pages and
have my www.domainname.com redirect to my home server which will be on
all the time and serve web pages.. and once someone registers on my
page I will send them a confirmation email.. thus where my smtp
outgoing email comes into play.. I've searched all over google for 2
days and there hasn't been anything helpful. Please help me!

Thanks,
Reid

Invalid email will get stuck in the queue, as well as email for which
the destination cannot be determined. Often DNS is at fault. Check
the NDR's if any, and check the SMTP logs.
