If you only have one server, you probably don't need an SMTP Connectory. However, the SMTP Connector uses the virtual server--it's not a separate connector, so you must have had it misconfigured.

I had a virtual SMTP server running aswell, and incoming mail was looping between the two. Doh! Now I have another problem - I can only receive mail from some domains - I can suxccessfully send mail to the new server from my own personal domain, I can see that recipients on the server are receiving from other sources, and I've received mail from some other mail lists I'm on but I just tried to send a mail from my hotmail account and I get the following error, from hotmail's servers, not mine: >This is an automatically generated Delivery Status >Notification. >Delivery to the following recipients failed. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Reporting-MTA: dns;hotmail.com >Received-From-MTA: dns;mail.hotmail.com >Arrival-Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2003 14:40:18 -0800 >Final-Recipient: rfc822;[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Action: failed >Status: 5.0.0 It's also bouncing mail from our most important customer :/ I've just done a bit of reading, and it's possible this is a DNS issue - most likely internal. the MX entry at the ISPs DNS server hasn't changed, and the server has the same (external) name and IP address as the old one... so the rest of the internet shouldn't even have noticed any changes. I'm pretty sure this is a config issue, as I can see the incoming SMTP sessions on the firewall monitor... Any help would be very much appreciated...
