The difference between IIS 5.0 and 6.0 is that in IIS6.0 the asp.net
applications are executed by w3wp.exe and by default its identity is
configured as NETWORK SERVICE. May be this account doesnt have enough
permissions to send email.

You can download a tool called Filemon from www.sysinternals.com and run it
to see which process is getting the access denied and what is its identity.
This will also tell you which file access failed.

Hope this Helps.
