sorry i did not get back to the original for some time, i thought it better
to start again.

1. both servers resolve
i do have the basic firewall in routing and remote access set to forword
port 80 to my internal server and port 25 to my DC (with exchange)

2. i can accept mail from other domains, but when i try to telnet i get a
error connecting to ip_number:25...could not open connection to host, on
port 23: conection failed
But since i am recing mail from else where i asume all is ok

3.I have mesaage traking on, but the mesages never gets to teh exchange
server to be tracked

i found them in the badmail folder with the message

***
Unable to deliver this message because the follow error was encountered:
"This message is a delivery status notification that cannot be delivered.".

The specific error code was 0xC00402C7.


The message sender was <>.


The message was intended for the following recipients.
