Replying to a message from: Hans-Christian

Hello!

Since a new Installation on a new SLES11-box, I had a big poblem when sending mails. I use XEAMS as a relay host; my mailserver transfers all messages correct to XEAMS, but XEAMS didn't send them out. Yes, port 25 is opened on my firewall, because when I check "SMTPOutboundConversation.log" I see, that XEAMS is connecting to the other SMTP-Server (HELO command and so on), but when he start mail Input [C --> 354 Start mail Input;....] he did nothing. That's the last entry. XEAMS retrys that as often as configured, then it deletes the mail. Sometimes I receive seconds (about 20 - 30) after the 354-command "closing Transmission channel - command timeout".

Receiving mails is almost no problem, DNS is working, some tested nameserver can resolve my Domain. Tested with Google DNS (8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4), they reported not found, Server failed. Does anyone had an idea, how I can solve that problem?

Thank you?!
