Turns out BTOpenworld have decided to block port 25 for all home plug
and go setups which mine is (I use it mainly for testing purposes). Time
to find a new ISP.
As such I am now faced with a new problem. I would still like to use the
GAL of my Exchange 2000 machine (ie all my AD contacts) but with my POP3
account instead. I can add an Exchange and POP3 profile OK (which will
display the contacts) but when I go to send messages (via BTOpenworld's
SMTP server, which will only allow my BTOpenworld account to send mail)
they seem to just disappear into the ether. No bounce back message, no
delivery. Any ideas?

Exchange 2000, SP3, W2K SP3.
I'm afraid I can't provide a great deal of informatiuon here since
there
just isn't any! Basically, one day I have a perfectly working mail
system then suddenly it stops receiving incoming mail. Outgoing is
absolutely fine. There is nothing in the event viewer to suggest a
problem and all DNS records appear to be OK. I have three domain names
housed on the same box, bondyweb.com, simonbond.com and
sacredlondon.co.uk. Bondyweb.com is the main one that is used and I
have
temporarily forwarded this to another address. However, the other
addresses have the same problem and I have left these pointing to my
exchange box for testing purposes. Any slightest hint of a suggestion
is
more than welcome.
