Sounds more like you have a routing issue. Have a look via winroute and see what pops up. Adding a connector is not a bad idea using the 2003 wizard that comes with.

The two servers are in the same Admin group. The original E2k server had a SMTP VS that was forwarding internet mail to a smart use which I will be moving to the new server. The SMTP VS on the new E2k3 server has not been configured. After moving a test user to E2k3, this user is able to send internet mail but is unable to receive internet mail. The sender gets the following NDR message : This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, because the message was forwarded more than the maximum allowed times. This could indicate a mail loop. Do I need to install a SMTP connector? for local delivery.? Help please.
