First, port 25 (SMTP) does not show Imail, but MS (and if you have not
created a user in the MS system, that is why it answers as it does!), so
stop (disable might be better!) the MS SMTP service (or change its port)
then start the IMail SMTP service. Second, connecting to port 110 (POP3) and
IMail responds, but not with the domain name you indicate. It answers as:
+OK X1 NT-POP3 Server insurancerobot.com (IMail 6.02 EVAL 1618-1). You need
to correct the Official Host Name to match that used by the computer.
Third, I had to use this IP, 63.197.30.242, to connect. By name (which all
servers will use!!) and the connection was not established. So I would
recommend you remove that second IP from your DNS for any hostname involved
with the IMail system. The second IP is not one you are using (as near as I
can tell!) so it is just getting in the way. If it is an internal IP, then
those should NEVER be in a DNS that the rest of the world has access to. For
internal IPs, you need another DNS that only your internal PCs access.
