Maybe the 1.4.1 JVM has an issue recovering once it thinks a host is down.

RemoteDelivery: Temporary exception delivering mail (Mailxxx-to-aauw.org:
javax.mail.MessagingException: Unknown SMTP host: aauwms2.aauw.org.;
nested exception is:
java.net.UnknownHostException: aauwms2.aauw.org.
at ...SMTPTransport.openServer(SMTPTransport.java:909)
That appears to be a transient network issue. JavaMail tries to open a socket to the host, gets a UHE from the JVM, and rethrows it wrapped in a MessagingException. When you go to test, the network issue has already cleared. I suspect that James would send the message when it retried. You might want to shorten delayTime (RFC 2821 requests at least 30 mins, James defaults to 6 hours) and increase maxRetries (RFC 2821 suggests at least 4 - 5 days, James defaults to 30 hours).
