Something is blocking connection attempts at your server. Do you have an.
external firewall or NAT device that needs port 25 opened inbound? If
you're absolutely sure it's not an external device that's blocking the
connection attempt, re-run the CEICW. For any page not relating to the
immediate topic, just click the "don't change" option.
This doesn't relate to your internal domain name, which can be anything.
Exchange is separate from that.
See my previous post on testing your server from an external PC using
telnet. You may not have to do this since you can see what's happening
right in dnsreport, but that's the actual way one would test smtp
connectivity. But telnet to port 25 is the correct way of troubleshooting
smtp connectivity.
FYI regarding your DNS, yesterday in the other thread when Cris Hanna said
he saw one thing, and kj said he saw another, I saw both. First what Cris
saw, then what kj saw. It looks to be fixed now, but your server is still
rejecting connection attempts. See the text below, which I'm pasting in
directly from a dnsreport.com check of newhomes2day.com that I just ran.
ERROR: I could not complete a connection to any of your mailservers!
newhomes2day.com: The mailserver terminated the connection before the
transaction was complete (state 1). This is not RFC compliant, and therefore
either due to an error, or it may be the result of a non-RFC-compliant
mailserver or non-RFC-compliant anti-spam program.

. Firewall is disabled on Comcast router and SBS firewall is up
. Checked Anti-virus ports are open to receive mail
. Ran Internet and Email repair about a dozen times still no change
. I'm running SBS 2003 with exchange

. Reverse DNS is correct / ran http://www.dnsstuff.com/mx correct
mail.newhomes2day.com. MX IN 7200 mail.newhomes2day.com. [Preference = 10]
