Sharepoint V3 2003SBS alerts problems

[jamie77]

I have a 2003 SBS server. It came with Shaprepoint V2 and I have installed (using a MS guide) Sharepoint v3 in side-by-side mode as the HelpDEsk in v3 is far better.

I want users to be alerted when a Service request is assigned to them. When we create the User alert we get an email saying the Alert has been set us ok but the alerts don't happen!!!

I have changed the Timer service to run as Domain admin but still doens't make any difference. I assume that the o/g email settings are fine as we get the Alert Setup email fine.

Anyone able to assist, this is annoying me.

Or at least point me in the right direction to start fault finding. the Sharepoint log looks like it is activating the OWSTimer.exe. Is there somewhere in SBS Exchange I can see who doesn't like it, Exchange or Sharepoint.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE

We use a 3rd party software web part to handle email alerts for things assigned to them. It's not cheap.

The Alerts on the Companyweb (Sharepoint v2) work from this Server
