I am not the best a reading the logs, but I am learning.  It has been only
this one message with the problem.  Here is a snippet of the logs.

a lot of the same....

  I didn't notice the send error 10054 before, my bad.  Looks to me that the
other server is timing out.  Any other comments?

  Second question: Are there any tools that analyze the logs for errors and
other problems?  I tried IMAnalyze.  I also tried writing my own.

Any help will be helpful.

Arthur,

Status 3 ( in a line like:  04:10 09:17 SMTP-(0000008E) finished
C:\IMail\spool\Q07ee2b8.SMD status=3) means the message was not delivered.
If this happens enough times, the message should be returned to the sender
with an error. What is that error? Does this happen to all messages or only
some? If all, then I would look for problems with DNS. If only some, or just
one or 2 domains, then the problem is likely to be the remote sites DNS.

Include from the log, all the lines that have the same number in () for the
delivery attempt and we can probably tell you more.
