Why aren’t you turning on the
teaming for the NICs? That will enable fault-tolerance and reduce the IP
addresses to one. I don’t know how your Exchange
environment is configured exactly, but unless you’re hosting multiple
domains and want to separate them or
troubleshooting/logging purposes, or you’re running SBS with CRM, you should not have 2 IP addresses on your
Exch box IMHO. Alex From:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glad to hear that. Why is one SMTP server
configured with 2 IP addresses? Alex From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ramon Linan I have done the telnet… I think I
found the problem, target smtp server was configured to only accept connection
from certain ip address, the source smtp server has 2 ip address, only one was
in the list…it seems to be working fine now… Thanks all From:

any utility for you? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323350/ From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thanks for your help. I have found out more about my problem. It looks like the target exchange SMTP
server is acting up, I can telnet sometimes and sometimes I cant. Also
sometimes I am able to telnet but it is really slow and sometimes it even
freezes on me. I am still troubleshooting Thanks From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On
Behalf Of Al Mulnick The implications are further down the troubleshooting stack IMHO. If you cannot telnet to TCP 25 from the source Exchange server to the
target Exchange server, then you have a problem with connectivity. You
must be able to do this. Both directions. Until you can successfully do this,
then there is nothing more you can hope to accomplish. You can check DNS
as well, but you can also find out if basic connectivity is functioning using
the ip addresses. If it's not, and it sounds like it's not, then you'll
need to address that first. Al On 8/22/06, Thank everyone for the response…I am going nuts here,
everything is a mess. For some reason I cant telnet into domain1 email server from
domain2 , not only that , domain1 has 2 smtp server, one in the port 6000 and
the other in the port 25. Also I send an email to my personal account from
domain2 and I got something like this in the header: Mail from :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from servername.domain3.com
([ip address] helo=domain3.com So the
domain in the user's email address does not match the email server's
domain…I am wondering what are the implications of that…

Obviously if the server is running out of space
make sure you remediate that first. Second, I would recommend if ServerA
cannot send to ServerB, but the reverse is NOT true, then I would suggest trying
basic SMTP commands to ServerA from ServerB. Check the
following: 1) Is the server responding to SMTP commands? 2) Can the server accept and deliver the
mail item to intended recipient? 3) Are the SMTP queues clear in ESM? 4) Is DNS responding correctly (A, PTR, SRV
records present?)? Gut feeling...DNS. That's my first shot! From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

seen this already? On
8/22/06, Thanks very much, I think my second question was very easy J but wanted to confirm
it. The problem now is that we have 500 mg in the hard drive but
the smtp queue is still not delivering the emails from one server to the other.
We have 2 emails servers, one holds domain1.com and the other hold domain2.com. domain1.com can send and receive
fine but domain2 cant send to domain2, the emails are stuck in the queue with
that domain, how do I troubleshoot that? Thanks From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

work? It depends mostly on how busy is the server. >>> Also, if the hard drive gets full will that stop the queue from
delivering the emails? Of course.
From: Hi, I have 2 emails server in 2 different locations. All the sudden emails are not coming from one server to the
other, I found out that smtp queue folder was in a hard drive that was
running out of space. Do you guys know what is the minimum amount of HD space
needed for the smtp to work? Also, if the hard drive gets full will that stop the queue
from delivering the emails? Thanks Rezuma |
