Title: RE: DNS Problem
It should get returned as "host not found", or in E2K's case, it sometimes comes back as "the email system was unable to deliver the message but did not specify a reason".  If it sits in the queue, I would suspect it either resolves the name and can't find the SMTP server or it can't get a DNS MX response?

I posted a question about this a while back and still have not been able
to resolve it.

If I were to send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (any domain
that does not exist), it will set in the queue and keep retrying until
it times out.

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot it?

I am running Exchange 2000.
