Thank you for your quick response. I should have added that I was able to
send mail to werusa.com from my company's domain in the same timeframe that
messages are waiting in the Q. Does this change your opinion? What else
would keep this mail server from connecting to some servers but allowing to
connect to others.

Thanks,
Stephen Funk

That means that IMail wasn't able to connect to 205.188.157.3.  The DNS
resolved correctly; but, the server was unavailable.  It's almost certainly
a problem on the other end, not yours.

This is likely a DNS lookup issue.  You should check the log file to see
what it says about the files that do not get sent.  Search for the name of
the file, minus the first character and extension (IE "1234567" for file
"Q1234567.SMD").

This just means that the file is locked, and signals to IMail that it
shoulndn't touch it until the lock is taken off.
