Hi Dave, According to http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/[EMAIL PROTECTED] the e-mail address is valid and receives a 250 Recipient OK response. http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=ewing1.comChecking shows their reverse DNS (for their MX) as mail.ewing1.com at an IP address of 12.9.131.198. They appear to be running a PIX firewall with the smtp fixup protocol enabled. In the logs you posted, notice that the response is HELO rather than EHLO. Since I don't have a PIX, I'm *guessing* you are getting the ewlnm01.ewing1.com from the PIX firewall since it is intercepting the SMTP conversation. This is likely causing the HELO/EHLO problems you are seeing and causing your verify tests to fail. I'm not sure if there is a way to correct this on your end, (maybe a HOST file entry for mail.ewing1.com?) since the best fix is to disable the SMTP protocol on the PIX. Perhaps there is a Cisco guru lurking here that can help out. As usual, YMMV, yadda, yadda, yadda HTH, ~Patrick To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
