Not sure what to tell you on that, then... It's very odd that it would completely close the telnet session like that - I'm suspecting that it's something other than xmail which is the issue.
Have you tried connecting to the SMTP port and see if that's functioning? (I didn't see anything about it in your original message...) Or any other ports on the machine which are accessible? rommelaccount wrote: > The box isn't accessible from the internet with telnet.
