I've been troubleshooting this problem for a while but not getting anywhere fast.
I have a SBS2003 server with exchange server 2003 running.
Emails are arriving from some domains but not others.
eg. if I send an email from my hotmail account to my corporate email address on the exchange system, it arrives every time. If I send an email from my other email address (virginmedia) it doesnt arrive (or gets delayed).
I have enabled SMTP logging and I appear to have found a pattern in the logs.
When a successful email arrives, I get a number of lines in the SMTP logs - EHLO, RCPT, DATA etc...
When I send an email from a problematic domain, I get a single line in the log with the status 240 QUIT (along with all the other log details).
This shows that the SMTP connection is being attempted and logged on the server, but it is just getting the QUIT response straight away.
I'd appreciate any assistance on this.
Thanks
Ian.
