The first server does not show any connection data after the processing line, so I wonder if it is having trouble getting DNS data for the domain. I suspect that this computer has a different IP address for the DNS setting in IMail as compared to the second server. If this is true, I also suspect if you change the first to use the DNS used by the second, you will see a different response and the mail will be delivered.
