Yes, I see my exchange banner and can issue a EHLO command.

I can also telnet to the localhost, port 25, and get a response from
postfix.  I can then issue the following commands:


EHLO test.com
MAIL FROM:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DATA
Subject: test message
This is a test message you will not see a response from this command.
.
QUIT

And I receive the e-mail in my exchange mailbox just fine.

When I click the "test" link in the Zenoss web interface to send an
e-mail, I just get:

Test failed: socket.gaierror (-2, 'Name or service not known')

Thanks for the help.

The first thing I would check is telnet on port 25 from the Zenoss
virtual machine to your smtp relay, e.g.

$ telnet my_exchange_server 25

You should see the signature of your Exchange box... do you have that?
