Re: Please help I cannot send messages from exchange 2003 account

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Actually I can send messages, but they are going into spam folder of my
external email account.

Is your firewall allowing outbound port 25 mail? Does your ISP block it?

Hello

I have just installed exchange 2003 server and I am trying to send
message from exchange account but they never reach the external
recipient. Everything is OK with internal mail.

I have run smtpdiag.exe and I have got the log. Could you possibly point
me to the right direction because I am new with exchange. I think it
could be something wrong with DNS settings. We have Windows 2003 DC and
Exchange 2003 on Windows 2003 member server.

Thanks in advance.

Searching for Exchange external DNS settings.
Computer name is MERCURY.
VSI 1 has the following external DNS servers:
There are no external DNS servers configured.

Checking SOA for yahoo.com.
Checking external DNS servers.
Checking internal DNS servers.

Checking TCP/UDP SOA serial number using DNS server [192.1.1.176].
TCP test succeeded.
UDP test succeeded.
Serial number: 2007103104
SOA serial number match: Passed.

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:mydomain .com.
A: mydomain.com [192.1.1.156]
A: mydomain.com [192.1.1.176]

Checking MX records using UDP: mydomain.com.
A: mydomain .com [192.1.1.156]
A: mydomain.com [192.1.1.173]
A: mydomain.com [192.1.1.176]
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.
