Is anyone else here able to telnet to smtpinvite.mx.webtv.net on port 25
with no problems?

sounds like the server you are trying to telnet to from your mail server
cannot reverse lookup the IP of your server and you are lagging because you
have to wait for its DNS lookup to timeout, then it connects.

Webtv sounds like a routing problem or they are blocking you space via
firewall, etc.

Greets,
 We seem to be having trouble delivering to a few different domains lately,
one being webtv. I can't seem to figure out why but on another domain we
have issues with I noticed today if I telnet to it on port 25 from our mail
server it takes forever to greet us but if I telnet to it from many other
boxes on our network it replies right away. These boxes are all on the same
class C, a variety of OS', and the other end does eventually greet the mail
server if I telnet in but it takes at least 2 minutes so i assume our mail
server is timing out when trying to deliver.

On the webtv delivery problem their primary seems to totally reject port 25
sessions from any of our hosts and their 2ndary asnwers right quick.

Any thoughts or ideas?

TIA,
 Scot
