hello,

You can check your watchguard logs from your logging/management
 station to see if there are any blocked packets going to your
 server's port 25. It may also be a DNS issue if your exchange
 box cannot resolve other domains/servers, but unlikely though.

alternatively, you can post your logs here for us to see and
advise.

Best of luck,
Paul Tan

Subject: Communications failure after installing Watchguard


I recently installed a Watchguard Firebox.  Originally, it appeared that all
mail from my Exchange 5.5 server was sending and receiving to all types of
mailservers.  Come to find out that there are two mail servers in the
building right next door to us that we are unable to send mail to or receive
mail from.

My mail server is mail.esp.fsu.edu
The first mail server, an Exchange box, that I tried sending to was
titus.cefa.fsu.edu with no result, they are not able to send mail to us
either.

The other is a Linus box running Send Mail, named odie.ispa.fsu.edu in the
same building cannot send mail to us or receive mail from us.

I have confirmed that they are able to send/receive from all types of mail
servers also.  We just are not communicating with one another.

I have gotten two different messages, which I have confirmed that they have
gotten as well, they follow:
