Jared, 

We have an exchange 2003 cluster running server 2003 with groupshield 6
installed. I can tell you, Groupshield 6.0 seems to be a touchy product.
We've had numerous problems with it that require custom hotfixes from
NAI. So in my opinion, yes, GSE could be your problem. But to check
things, are your queued messages have a status of "pending submission" ?
If so you need to make sure your smtp connector is attached to the
correct virtual server and that publishing rules in your firewall allow
connections to and from the virtual ip. Make sure it's also setup as the
routing group master. You can check that in Exchange System Manager.

Steve

Unfortunately, none of these options works. The SMTP is somehow still on
a
20 minute delay.

Does anything think it could be McAfee Groupshield doing this??

Which queue is it sitting in? Awaiting lookup; Waiting routed?

Use perfmon to see if the any messages are leaving and what are coming
in? 

Have you been spam blacklisted anywhere?

Is the remote server performing a reverse DNS lookup? And do you have a
ptr
record registered?

Try and force the connection; restart the Virtual server; restart IIS;

Hi All

We have hundreds of messages sitting in the Virtual SMTP que. The
recipient
domains for the email are fine, (I can telnet into their email server on
port
25.) 

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? 

Thanks, Jared
