I don't believe Exchange is likely to be your problem. Exchange has worked with domains with hyphens as long as I've been working with it, which is a long time.
>From the Exchange server, try doing a telnet to port 25 to one of those domains. You don't use an SMTP smart host, do you?

Server is W2k sp3, Exchange 2k sp3, IE 6.1 Having problems sending mail to domains that have a dash in them (ie [EMAIL PROTECTED]) they just sit in the queue. It appears when I track them that smtp is attempting to connect (I see the remote server name in the message tracking output) but the event viewer shows the connection manager that the remote host dropped the connection. Anyone else having this problem, or thoughts on how to resolve ?? _________________________________________________________________ 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] _________________________________________________________________ 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] _________________________________________________________________ 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] _________________________________________________________________ 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]
