Connection refused means that the POST Server could
not find an SMTP server on the other side. This usually means that the
other side is down. Other errors that you will find in the POST server log
include Winsock errors which are all enumerated here: www.sockets.com.

Subject: [iMS] Reading POST Log
Files
Is there any documentation on how to read the
POST logs? For example, I have extracted the following :
12/04/2003 05:13:22 PM [001] Send mail start for
78C20DBCD25632419CDC5978FF8F4AE5_74A7921EEF5A8D41AB0349A3B2FFCFD4.mail

mx.east.cox.net
I can see that cox.net is refusing my
connection. But, I would like to read more about what other problems
might be in this log file. And, if my connection is being refused, how
can I find out why my connection is getting refused?
Also, is there a parser program that I can use to
parse these logs and give me a better looking report?
Thanks,
