If I understand you correctly, the code you originally posted is being run on a server at your web hosting company. And that code is failing. Since they are not blocking port 25, then you must have another problem. The error message 'connection to host lost' indicates you successfully connected.
Having ruled that out, you should be able to trap an error code when your code attempts to send the mail via SMTP.

Bob, I got a message 'connection to host lost' after executing the telnet command for a while.
But, let me provide some clarifications. The smtp.wisetreeconsult.com is on my web host server while my internet connectivity is provided by another ISP. Earlier on today, I spoke with the guys at the web hosting company. They confirmed to me that port 25 is open on their server. So that leaves me with the ISP. Is there a role for the ISP here? Could the port 25 be blocked by an ISP?
Depending on the O/S version, you may need to activate Telnet. It is not active by default on Win7, but is on XP. Google how to install it if necessary. Once you can launch telnet from your command prompt, type the following:
OPEN smtp.wisetreeconsult.com 25
If your ISP is blocking port 25, you will get a "Cannot open... " error.
~bob
Please, what command do I need to issue in order to open connection to smtp.wisetreeconsult.com using telnet. Please help me with the command.
One possibility to exclude is that your ISP has not filtered port 25. A very common practice. Use telnet to open a connection to smtp.wisetreeconsult.com to confirm all is good.

My mail is not just going through. What other settings or setups could bring about this.
What's the error?

I purchased this tool today 16th April 2013. I ran the following codes from my VFP application but an SMTP Error after program would have executed for a while. I have copied all the DLLs, PRGs and VCXs needed into the application path.
