I am really baffled by what is happening. I wiresharked this and watched a complete, successful packet exchange at the TCP level between the client and JAMES over the SMTP port. The data in the exchange contained the message that it couldn't process the request. But at the TCP/port level, everything appears to be fine. Yet I get the exception in the logs that JAMES can't get a connection. This really confuses me. Requesting a connection implies an outbound request. Aside from why it is not able to connect, why is JAMES trying to set up an outbound connection to my server's IP address while it is processing an inbound SMTP request? Doesn't seem necessary as part of standard SMTP protocol. Is this some sort of reporting to JMX that is failing?

What port is JAMES trying to connect to on the local server's IP address, and what is supposed to be listening at that port that isn't there?

Thx

Jerry
