Did you try putting an actual e-mail through the telnet to that server? If not - telnet to the remote server on port 25 You should get a "220 - server ready" Type in: helo yourdomain.com Server will reply with a "250 ok" Type in: mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] You will get another 250 Type in: rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] You should get another 250 Type in: DATA and press enter (it will tell you how to terminate the input - usually a period on a line of its own) Type in the test message body - whatever you feel like - and terminate the input as directed (again - probably a period on a line of it's own) You should get another 250 or some other confirmation response.
If you get any errors along the way, perhaps it will give you a clue on what the problem might be. I could not find it on the Microsoft Web, but in TechNet - if you search for "MS Exchange Internet Protocols" - you will find a troubleshooting guide that explains all this and more Jerzy _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
