Hi all,

Well egg on my face.  I found the problem. I replaced our Firewall last week
and in the process of setting it up again I inadvertently left  "auto
blocking of source on packets not handled" checked.  DUH.

Thanks,
Don

Hi all,

I am having a similar issues with 5.5 sp4 were I have several sites that we
can receive mail from but we cannot send to.  When I telnet the sites they
drop the connection and state not SMTP available re-schedule deliver for
later time. Eventually they will be dropped and the sender notified.

We are also getting riddled with netsky viruses and others. Could this be
causes by a virus that got through?

Any Ideas are help would be great.

Thanks,
Don

Subject: Communication problem with one domain

Hi all,

We are having a weird problem with one of the domain fcw.com (not ours , one
our customer's), our exchange 2000 (SP3) server is unable to send e-mail to
this domain, the mail stays in the que and the que properties says
"Connection dropped by remote host" . I configured a separate SMTP service
on a win2k box and tried outlook express to send e-mail to this domain
(fcw.com) it worked fine. I am able telnet fine from the exchange box.  We
are able to send and receive just fine with any other domain.

I even spoke with fcw.com's IT people they don't have any problems receiving
mails from any where else, they don't have any SPAM or firewall etc. , its
their Exchange 5.5SP3 running on Win-NT 4


Any ideas or clue what could be going wrong ? Or where else I can look ?


Thank you very much in anticipation of your response,

Kishore
