Try (this is from memory -- I'm too lazy this morning to look it up in the
docs to make sure I've got it right :-P ):
pecandeluxe.co.uk = myispsmailexchanger.myisp.com.smtp
You'll also want to make sure that your server can relay through your ISP's
server. This might be a band-aid work-around, but I'm sure you'd feel much
better if you could figure out why you can't connect to the
legend/pecandeluxe server directly in the first place. To that end, I'll
second the suggestion for running traceroutes between all of the relevant
locations. Here's another (probably silly) thought: double-check that the
IP address that your server looks up as the MX for pecandeluxe.co.uk is in
fact the correct address. Also, is there any reason why the pecandeluxe
server might refuse connections from your server's IP address (although
your telnet attempts are timing out rather than giving you a 'connection
refused' error, so that doesn't seem very likely)?
