No outgoing email - everything else OK

I have reinstalled IIS and Exchange and rerun the Internet connection wizard.
Incoming email and All general Internet access is working fine Outgoing
email sites in Q's under the SMTP Virtual Server. I use DNS to send...but
have tried the ISP's Smart Host. It appears as SMTP is blocked going out. I
can not connect to external mail server by Telnet'ing port 25.
SMTPDiag comes back with ...

"postmaster@ha
nsenqp.com" "jfreid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" /v
Searching for Exchange external DNS settings.
Computer name is SBS2K.
VSI 1 has the following external DNS servers:
64.115.0.9,64.115.0.10
Checking SOA for autooneins.com.

SOA serial number match: Failed with one or more failures.
Checking local domain records.
Starting TCP and UDP DNS queries for the local domain. This test will try to
validate that DNS is set up correctly for inbound mail. This test can fail for
3 reasons.
1) Local domain is not set up in DNS. Inbound mail cannot be routed to
local mailboxes.
2) Firewall blocks TCP/UDP DNS queries. This will not affect inbound mail,
but will affect outbound mail.
3) Internal DNS is unaware of external DNS settings. This is a valid
configuration for certain topologies.
Checking MX records using TCP: hansenqp.com.
MX: hansenqp.com (0)
MX: www.hansenqp.com (10)
Checking MX records using UDP: hansenqp.com.
MX: hansenqp.com (0)
MX: www.hansenqp.com (10)
A: hansenqp.com [64.115.169.110]
A: www.hansenqp.com [64.115.169.110]
Both TCP and UDP queries succeeded. Local DNS test passed.
Checking remote domain records.
Starting TCP and UDP DNS queries for the remote domain. This test will try to
validate that DNS is set up correctly for outbound mail. This test can fail
for
3 reasons.
1) Firewall blocks TCP/UDP queries which will block outbound mail. Windows
2000/NT Server requires TCP DNS queries. Windows Server 2003 will use UDP
queries first, then fall back to TCP queries.
2) Internal DNS does not know how to query external domains. You must
either use an external DNS server or configure DNS server to query external
domains.
3) Remote domain does not exist. Failure is expected.
Checking MX records using TCP: autooneins.com.
MX: mail.uu.net (30)

Both TCP and UDP queries succeeded. Remote DNS test passed.

Now here's the kicker.... My ISP thought there was some virus comgin from
our server last weekend...so I scanned the server with Symantec Corp Edition
AV. I can not tell you if email had stopped before or after that scan...but
when I was researching the SMTP problem I found out what a bad idea that is
on a server that is running Exchange. File level scans on the M drive are
not good....apparently. So I looked at the default scan settings and the M
drive is in there...so it was scanned.
So I thought maybe the scan corrupted something so I did the reinstall of
IIS and Exchange. No change. So something could still be broke by that
scan?? Or SMTP could be blocked by ISA?? My ISP says they did not block
port 25 coming out (even though thety did that a long time ago when the
server was an open relay).
Any Ideas?
thanks,
Jim
