And when I check the SMTP Queues, the message is "the remote server did not

Would be very grateful for any insight.

Thank you in advance.

try removing your isp's dns numbers from the SBS dns forwarders. Right
click server name in dns and choose properties. go to command prompt
and type ipconfig/flushdns.

Make sure your isp has made a reverse dns entry for your server name
(mx record) and ip.

Hi,

Are you sending with DNS? If yes, create another smtp connector and let that
go through smarthost for those silly domains only.
