We've installed a second server into our existing Exchange organization, but users are unable to send any email from mailboxes that are moved to the new server. The sent mail just hangs in the outgoing queue until it times out. They can receive email just fine from the internet and the internal org. I've checked the server and SMTP settings and can't see where this is misconfigured. Any ideas?
Hi, Is there an open port 25 in the firewall for this server? If the first server is going to stay you could create a SMTP connector on this server (using this servers default SMTP server only). In this way you would force all internet mails to go thru the first server.

We ended up creating the SMTP Connector and this fixed the problem. The first server will be decommissioned and rebuilt for Exch 2003 Enterprise. I'm hoping this problem doesn't come back to haunt us when we take the first server down. Thanks for your help!
