I have JAMES 1.2.1 set up on an experimental server and havn't had any problems with it... Until now.
I can send mail through SMTP to my hotmail account and to my AT&T account but I get the following error in mailet.log when I try to send to msn.com. 2002.01.28 10:26:44 896 (INFO) from Mailets: RemoteDelivery: attempting delivery of Mail1012285604610-53-!1016723847-to-msn.com to host smtp-gw-4.msn.com. 2002.01.28 10:26:45 246 (INFO) from Mailets: RemoteDelivery: Exception caught in RemoteDelivery.deliver() : javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp-gw-4.msn.com., port: 25 2002.01.28 10:26:45 246 (INFO) from Mailets: RemoteDelivery: Exception delivering mail (Mail1012285604610-53-!1016723847-to-msn.com: javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp-gw-4.msn.com., port: 25 at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.openServer(SMTPTransport.java:855) at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.protocolConnect(SMTPTransport.java:156) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:234) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:135) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:87) at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.connect(SMTPTransport.java:93) at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.deliver(RemoteDelivery.java:127) at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.run(RemoteDelivery.java:274) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:539) 2002.01.28 10:26:45 246 (INFO) from Mailets: RemoteDelivery: Storing message Mail1012285604610-53-!1016723847-to-msn.com0 into outgoing after 0 retries I thought that smtp-gw-4.msn.com might have gone down (at least briefly) but I could send mail from my AT&T account and another attempt with JAMES produced the same result. I tried to telnet to smtp-gw-4.msn.com port 25 and got the following. # telnet smtp-gw-4.msn.com 25 Trying 207.46.181.13... Connected to smtp-gw-4.msn.com.

Is protocol incompatable with 1.2.1? Does anyone have any clues? Although my server is experimental I'd like to make it production soon so any help would be very well appreciated.
