     errors as i can connect to the mailserver with outlook express and it 'acts'
     as though its fine. i can send an email and it connects and sends it, but it
     doesnt deliver it. i dont receive emails either. its a bit bizarre.
     Sometimes it asks me to login in again and i have a dialogue box that looks
     slightly different to the normal ones as it asks for username, password and
     domain. not sure if that helps.

     The logon is because of the authentication method you use. If you have
     specified IP addesses in the Relay box, you probably don't need Windows
     Integrated authentication, but if you have that working that's fine.
     
     You can check the /Inetpub/mailroot/* folders to see if any messages are
     stuck in there. Received messages are placed in the drop if they aren't
     delivered or queue if they are queued to to sent. If there is anything in
     the bad mail there was an error sending/receiving.
     
     You can also turn on logging, and have a look at the logs
     /windows/system32/logfiles/smtpsvc to see what's happening.
