A client of ours is having trouble sending to home.com with the exact same
error. I tested sending him a message through our iMail server (outgoing)
and it wouldn't go through. I switched our outgoing to mail.concentric.net
(our DSL provider) and it went through without any problem whatsoever. I
switched back to our iMail server as the outgoing and again it would not go
through. These are the logs.

Is the connection reset really the remote server (home.com) resetting, or
could it be that iMail is just not waiting long enough for home.com to
respond? I tried a few manual tests telnetting to 24.0.95.25:25 and there
was a delay before getting their welcome, but once connected I send a couple
messages just fine.

(00002746) is actually hexadecimal for 10054, or a TCP/IP Connection Reset
error. It usually means that the remote end of the connection reset the
TCP/IP connection. Since it occurred after you connected and before any
data was sent to you, it likely means that they were overloaded with
incoming E-mails. Often mail servers will delay the initial welcome message
until there is a free thread to handle the connection, but it may be that
after a certain timeout their mail server is dropping the TCP/IP connection.
It's unlikely to be anything on your end. If it happens a lot, or to
several different domains, it would be worth looking into further.
Otherwise, I wouldn't worry about it. Kind of like sending E-mail to
yahoo.com, you've just got to put up with their mail problems.
