also check to see what THEIR dns lookup says about you.. we've had it before 
where someones had an old old old old record on their isp, causing things to 
fail. although i guess seeing as it actually connects to you but times out, 
thats probably not the cause.. youre not doing some sort of domain validation 
on received mail are you?

Chris, after looking around, the DNS record for my MX record looks
right, even the reverse DNS looks right.  I even use the name server of
ISP that my vendor is using and it points to the right ip address.  So
far, he still can't get through while I am able to receive from
everybody else.

I would agree that it is most likely a DNS problem.  It's most likely
related to your MX record, and not the DNS A host record.

I would do a simple NSLOOKUP using some online DNS lookup utility to
query for all MX records in your zone.

It is a DNS problem, I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago, and
received that same time out message.

        Yes they are able to ping and they were able to telnet to my
exchange server.  Weird part is that they don't have any problem sending
email to other people and I don't have problem receiving email from
other senders (as far as I know).

                Can they ping your Exchange Server? Telnet to it? Sounds
like their problem, have them adjust their max connection time.

                Just wondering if anyone can shed some light to this
mystery of mine. My exchange 2K server seems to be running fine but one
of our vendor can not get through.  Everytime they send an email to us,
they get "Recipient's server exceeded time for connection".  It seems to
be blocking their domain name but I can't find the block anywhere in my
system including firewall.  Any idea?

                Thanks for any input

                What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal
servers? Did you know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single
biggest constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to
understand the real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by
scaling-up rather than buying more servers.
