If you cannot telnet into the mail server, and if you aren't getting
blocked by a firewall, then how do you know the SMTP server is actually
reachable and actually running? Can you do a traceroute to the SMTP
host? Can you ping that host (they may have pinging disabled)?
Reaching the host and it responding to a ping does NOT mean the mail
server program that is supposed to be running on that [boundary] host is
actually running and responsive. Have you called the e-mail provider to
determine that their SMTP server is okay?
