Scott,
What Relay settings are being used (should be Addresses and Peers IP's there
too!)?
I once found that if I entered Peer information, then removed it, IMail SMTP
still said 'accept for peer', even though nothing was in the list (in an
older version, not tested in 6.05, by me!). I found that one needs to delete
the 'PeerList' setting in the Registry (under that domain name), then
stop/start SMTP service, before this action changed (to normal 'unknown
user'). Maybe you are seeing some variation of this? I guess I would tell
you to delete the that setting from the registry, then recreate them in
IMail Admin, stop/start SMTP service on both and see if the computers now
sends the backedup email. Alternately, you might not create them, but
stop/start the SMTP service and see if it now accepts a peers email. If not,
then the first step worked OK. Now set the peer list up, save, stop/start
SMTP service and test again.
I've not encountered a set of Peered Servers and changing the IP as yet, so
not sure what else might need be done.
