Check the status of the SMTP service to confirm either that is started and
can be started but fails thereafter. Check the configuration to make sure
the default port has not been changed. Check to make sure you have no local
AV with port blocking rules or firewalls that are blocking port 25.

Folks
I'm having a rather weird problem with a SBS 2003 installation of
Exchange. It's probably something pretty trivial but I can't figure
out what's going on...
In a few words the install is working just fine and on the e-mail side
we are using the exchange POP connector to retrieve e-mail from various
POP accounts.
However we plan to start using direct SMTP, i.e. receiving the mails
directly on the exchange server.
I have, I believe, done all the correct setup and to test it (before
modifying the MX records in the public DNS) I have tried to connect via
telnet on port 25 and manually generate a message.
However this is not working at all - the telnet session fails. Both
machines (the telnet client and the Exchange server) are on the same
subnet and I have no problem connecting on other ports (such as 80 for
the IIS server running on that very machine).
Any idea / troubleshooting tip would be welcome....
Thanks & regards
