If the Exch servers are all on the same subnet, why are they going through a
router? 
I would re-double check ip settings, DNS, host files, make sure there
nothing screwy in WINS, lmhosts ( barf) files etc... Add the appropriate
entries in the respective hosts files of each server and see if that solves
it as well. 

Nothing in the event logs?

Nope. But this is what we have found so far:

Some XCH 5.5 servers can send
Some XCH 2003 servers can send
All are on same subnet.
All have identical IP settings
None are multi-homed
None have the winsock proxy client or the ISA firewall client RPCping works
on some on not on others as does a pingport on port 135 (RCP)

We *think* the subnet mask is configured wrong on the router on the other
end which allows some IP's (in the lower range) to communicate while
blocking others (in the higher range) from getting through. Does this seem
to make sense? Subnetting hurts my head as I am mathimatically challeneged!
