Hi Cornelius

Thanks for the Reply.

The allow computers that successfully authenticate box is already checked.
This hasn't been changed since last week when email was able to be delivered

I have already checked DNS, but double checked and the MX Records are
correct - pointing to the correct IP Address

Regards

Fred
