I assume that with "log" you refer to the capture made on the relay-server? With the ACK you are refering to a TCP-ACK coming from the smtp server you are trying to send mail to? With retransmit, do you mean a TCP retransmit, or do you mean that the TCP-session ends and the smtp-daemon "retries" sending it after it's configured interval? Since you say this continues for two days ending with a rejection notice. I assume you were talking about the second option. > However, it's even more bizarre because I haven't located any packet loss. > I don't think it's an MTU problem, and the only time I can replicate the > email issue is by attempting to send .html attachments (not embedded) They > aren't being received inbound and not reaching the recipient outbound. Does this happen with only one recipient domain or with all domains you are tryin to send ".html" attachements too? ie can it be that the problem is caused by the remote site instead of yours? > Can anyone help me?

Could you send me a (binary) capture file of one SMTP session in which the message is not fully deliverd?
