All the verify does is connect to the mail server, issue an SMTP HELO and QUIT. I
would assume that CF cannot connect to the mail
server at all in that case. Try this:
Open telnet
connect to port 25 of your mail server. Wait for the preamble (some text returned
from the server).
Type in "HELO" (without the quotes)
Type in "QUIT" when you are ready to disconnect.
Let me know what happens.
