Can you resolve the name of the server from your IMS box?
Why don't you set up an internal DNS server with information about the
outside world?

Subject: messages stuck in the Queue Exchange 5.5
Yes the messages are stucked in the outbound queue, I could view the
messages in exchsrv\imcdata\imcout folder. We do not have a DNS server, we
have a firewall which redirects mails to our ISP which is Demon and the
necessary rules have been created for this new server on the firewall. The
IMS settings are exactly the same as that of the server that is being
replaced. IMS is set to forward all messages to host, which I assume will
be Post.demon.co.uk. and not the ip address of the firewall. In the
properties of DNS through protocol we have the IP address of our firewall
and the host is the name of the new server running exchange with all the
mail boxes and the domain address is rcplondon.ac.uk just as it is in the
working server. I have changed the cost of the old server back to 1 and the
new one to 99, mails are now flowing through the old server. I have about
100 mails stuck in the new server, I do not know what to do next. After
installing the new IMS I did not run the performance optimizer, could that
have anything to do with it. I would have loved to send snap shots of my
configuration, this I cannot do through this forum.
Thanks
