How do i know if it is my problem or the receiving server's problem. I cannot send or receive mail from xxx.gov. They receive mail from a yahoo test. i can telnet from my mail server to their mail server so it is making a connection. Is it something in my dns or theirs? They say they do not have us blacklisted that we are whitelisted. How do you go about troubleshooting a single domain problem? What else can I look at?

Hi - always post your version & SP level of Exchange in these groups - answers frequently vary by version. If you get an NDR, please post the exact text. Take a look in message tracking, and also try SMTP logging. http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/The_Exchange_Message_Tracking_Center_or_How_to_Save_Your_A_in_a_Pinch.html http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Logging_the_SMTP_Service.html

Also, once you find the SMTP conversation in the logs, contact the recipient's mail admins and ask them to review their logs as well. > > > "Lanwench [MVP - Exchange]" wrote: > >> COB wrote: >>> How do i know if it is my problem or the receiving server's problem. >>> I cannot send or receive mail from xxx.gov.
