Not an error message I have seen before from IMail, Len. What version of
IMail is it? Are you sure IMGate is really communicating with an IMail
machine? I seem to recall a different message when IMail V5 or later
(earlier versions might not have any message of this type!) has a full
spool. Unfortuanatly, I just cannot recall what it was. Pretty sure there
was a '4xx' number in it and wording was somthing like 'cannot write' or
'Disk full', somthing to that effect.
What do you mean, you cannot send him mail? How about an 'end around',
bypassing IMGate - use addressing as 'user@[ipaddress]', or 'user@FQDN',
where [ipaddress] and FQDN are the IP or full name of the IMail machine? I
often use these forms to send direct to a particular mail server.
Remember your mantra?
Read the logs.... Read the logs.... Read the logs......
Might help if we saw the delivery attempt, if at all possible.
Another technique would be to use telnet program and port 25 to connect to
IMail and send msg using SMTP commands. Does IMail accept that (message
queued)? If not, what is returned by IMail after the <CRLF>.<CRLF>?
Can local users in IMail, send email to themselves or other users in that or
other internal comains? If that works, IMail is probably OK.
