Re: SMTP troubles (AGAIN!)

As was just mentioned, the mail will deliver fine, if the 400s were 
permitted to access the Internet.  If neither machine cannot ping an 
internet host, say 4.2.2.1, than they will not be able to send email 
without some type of help in the form of a mail relay.  Is there a 
policy about having your 400s access the Internet?

Best regards,
