When you interogate your DNS (the one IMail is using) for slam1.com, what do
you get? Here is what I get from my DNS:
slam1.com.
nameserver = NS1.IMCONLINE.NET.
nameserver = NS2.IMCONLINE.NET.
12.21.218.85
1, slam1.com.
Your server is setup to accept ALL mail. So it can be used as a Relay and
that could cause your system to be rejected by other mail servers (although
in this case it is IMail to IMail so that would not cause it to be rejected
by the receiving machine).
I tried to use your system to relay to slam1.com, but the message was not
delivered and here is the bounce I got:
Invalid final delivery userid: slam
Original message follows.
Received: from [156.21.3.207] by ss1.gosafetrans.net

subject: This is a test that is expected to bounce
Hello Slam!
Please ignore, if you get this message.

-------------------------
If your DNS returns anything different than the above, then I would try
using a different (upstream) DNS to see if that then works (you can change
the IP of DNS in the SMTP settings and it will be used the next time a send
is attempted). Or you could try adding the IP/domain name for slam1.com, to
your HOSTS file and that would bypass DNS lookups. If that works, then your
DNS is still having troubles.
PS, the HOSTS file must end with <CRLF> (Enter key) or the OS cannot parse
the last line.
