My first guess is to look at the GWART and see what's showing as the actual options for SMTP message delivery (you can also look at the site addressing properties on the routing tab). That should tell you where the mail is going. Try forcing replication and then recalculating routing to see if the GWART changes.
Pay particular attention to the address space assigned to the IMS, and also verify all IMS settings. ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
