We had a problem with utl_smtp and it was a port thing. After the Metalink doc
about helo and domains and what-not, the port was the problem. Check the
Metalink doc to test your mail server connection.

Subject: utl_smtp issues
Oracle: 10.1.0.3
OS: Solaris 64 bit
We have used utl_smtp for emailing for years. Now all of a sudden on some of
our servers, mail is not being sent when we use utl_smtp. Nothing in the
datbase has changed. mailx on the unix server works fine.
What does utl_smtp do under the cover to send mail? I am assuming it makes some
OS calls to send mail? There was probably some OS/network change or something.
However, it is easier to track down if someone can help me figure out what
utl_smtp does under the covers.
it does not appear to use mailx since mailx still works.
