Ok I have made some headway,
I did some snooping and noticed the Reverse Lookup Zones were built
incorrectly so I fixed them and rebooted Servers SES and TES. Now the
users on SES and TES are able to send email to each other with no
issues.
I have since removed the test2 Routing group and associated connector
and placed both SES and TES in the Same Routing Group (Test), which has
a single Routing Group Connector in it. Last night I Rebooted FES with
hopes it would start acting correctly, well it did not. For further
testing I moved TES into the First Routing Group with FES and this
completely broke all my e-mail transmissions between servers. So I moved
TES back into the Test Routing Group with SES and all is fine with those
2 servers again .
So to some up:
1. Users on FES are able to receive emails from SES and TES
however they can not send mail to SES and TES
2. Users on TES and FES are able to send and receive mail
between both Servers.
Again all help is appreciated,
Joshua

Would not having the reverse lookup Zones built correctly possibly cause
this problem?

I will do it tonight but I did it this weekend and Still no luck.
I'm pretty sure I do not have resolution problems, I have not had any
other issues. I would think I would at least see some other issues
right?

After you're absolutely sure you don't have any name resolution or
network problems, try rebooting the ones with problems when you have the
opportunity.

Looking for Microsoft tools, but in the meantime the NetIQ Tool shows
know errors on any of my DC's or in DNS
Also there are no errors in the Eventlog.

Any DNS errors in the event viewer? There's a free tool called ADCheck
from NetIQ you may want to run http://www.netiq.com/adcheck/default.asp.
I think Microsoft has some free utilities to troubleshoot that as well.
