Did you change it to the same server address as the machine that is working properly ?
No. I changed it to a known good DNS address.

What? If another machine on the LAN can connect then every machine should be able to connect to the same WAN IP.

THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM!

I hate to be rude but these networking questions would be so much easier to answer if you gave us ALL THE INFO at the same time instead of us having to ask or even worse assuming this or that is true when in fact it is not.
Well, if I omit something I didn't do... :-)

That's baloney, so now we're suppose to guess whether you forgot to tell us or whether you just didn't bother. If that's the case then why should we bother to try & assist you ? </rhetorical>

It's not that I didn't bother, Walter. Often it's that I didn't think to do it. That's why I ask for troubleshooting suggestions.

If emails can be sent within a given host, but not sent from that host, wouldn't that indicate a problem like DoS?

Also, and surely not being able to connect to an SMTP server might becaused by a DoS, no?

NO way. You've already stated that one machine worked while another did NOT.

Intermittently. What if the DoS was done in bursts?
