manually do it and send you the screen cap.

My experience with the Watchguard proxy is old, dating back to the
II/III days, and I hated it.
It fubared all sorts of things.
Turn it off, and stick a real gateway in there.

The problem is that most mass-market Internet feeds block TCP/25

Probably, but I really think the problem is at the firewall proxy.
Besides, I have the smtp logs from the server. Shouldn't they have all
that data?

Sounds more like the helo is being rejected - if that were the case, it
would never get to the RCPT TO: - and a blank or non-existent RCPT TO:
doesn't sound valid either.

What are you using for a proxy? Can it be set to log the entire SMTP

I like that explanation and it sure would also explain
TBH, I think that's more like it. The people (external) installing just
said we need IMAP, when asked why...Cos we do.!
I did ask for an explanation of how it works from the people who support
and the reply was some what vague...

There's certainly no mechanism in the protocol to allow one to send messages,
but if messages are being dropped into a mailbox folder using IMAP, then
something else server side is processing them, that could explain the need for

We had to install IMAP on the server to the application would work. It
was the same when we had Ex55. The application wouldn't send mail due to

Someone will have had to rewrite the IMAP protocol to achieve that!
John - check out the SMTP logs on the UNIX box first to make sure it's actually
trying to send mail to your Exchange server.
Ignore IMAP.
