Hi Joy Assuming you have access to the CF server, open a command window on that machine. Then type: telnet <URL of the smtp server> 25 and press enter. If you have access to that server (ie, no firewall issues) and a mail see Ed is properly configured on it, you will get back a response. If you do, just type quit and press enter. At that point the issue is probably authentication with that server.
If all you get is dead air, then you need to determine why you can't reach it. It's either a firewall issue or a configuration issue on the machine the mail server should be running on. Unfortunately diagnosing these two issues is painfully specific to the software installed. Can't help much beyond the packages I'm familiar with.
