Morning, all,

I have received and configured our new Cisco 2621XM router (my first router config in 5 years....and it's been a long time!), and all is working great, except that I cannot receive emails. When I say great, I mean great...the office can browse the Internet, remote users can access webmail, and you can send emails through our Exchange Server, but we are unable to receive email.

Right now, we are using a Linksys router to get by until this new router is up and running (the old one went to the great Cisco land in the sky this past weekend), and when connected with it, we can send and receive email. So, I have ruled out the server itself. Also, when connected through the linksys you can telnet into the mail server (closed out for relaying, of course). When I plug in the Cisco though, and I attempt to telnet to the smtp server, i receive an error stating port not open.

Here is my configuration. I thought I had everything I needed, however, I would be forever grateful if someone could point out the err in my ways...(I hope it is common here to remove external IPs, passwords, etc.)
