Hello,

Ask the administrator to run nslookup on his outgoing mailserver and =
perform the following commands

following entry's

Non-authoritative answer:
dkl.com MX preference =3D 5, mail exchanger =3D firewall.dkl.com

dkl.com nameserver =3D sns.storm.ca
firewall.dkl.com        internet address =3D 209.87.236.33


Ask him to telnet to 209.87.236.33 port 25

Type helo

Hi all,
=20
We have a strange problem that cropped up early last week, and I could =
use your help.  We cannot recieve email from a company that used to send =
to us quite regularly.  We are receiving email from everywhere else in =
the world.  I've been working with their admin guy and they have no =
problems sending emails anywhere else but here.  When he tries to send =
me an email, this is the response he gets:
--
Your message Subject: "test" has been delayed for some or all of the =
intended recipients. The recipients that were affected are: =
sbeairst@xxxxxxx =
<outbind://46/cgi-bin/compose?curmbox=3DF000000001&a=3De3370dc078531d3388=
34c6a17df1e97b&mailto=3D1&to=3Dsbeairst@xxxxxxx&msg=3DMSG1047928416.99&st=
art=3D10587&len=3D1818&src=3D&type=3Dx>  Your message was received =
09:51:58 Mon, 17 March 2003. The mail system will keep trying to deliver =
your message for another 67 hours 57 minutes.=20

We've both run out of ideas on this one.  We cannot tell if its my =
system or his (I'm thinking its mine).  Coincidently, we both are using =
the same ISP (Storm.ca), so we initially suspected some kind of routing =
issue but the folks at Storm say everything is OK. We are both running =
Exchange 2000. I'm not doing any blocking on the server at all.
=20
Does anyone have any ideas where else we can look?

Thanks,
