Earlier today, our Exchange Server (5.5.2650.21) began disallowing all traffic on port 25. First, I checked the error logs...no errors! Then I shut down all the services and restarted them... port 25 still wouldn't open....
Finally, the solution was found as a bad email message (SPAM no less) in \imcdata\out. I moved (archived) this message into a ..\bad folder and reset the imc. The mail began flowing again.... I was happy again. It only took 15 minutes to solve the problem but I was hoping for 2 years in a row of ZERO downtime. Now, I can no longer claim this. #$*! I'm pissed off because I thought MS fixed this problem, at least 2 service packs ago (or 3 years ago)?
