Re: Exchange SP1 stopped all smtp traffic



You've rebooted the server since all of this, right? If not, please try
that first. If it's still not working, I would try re-running the CEICW
and, for any page not related to e-mail, choose the "do not change" option.
For the e-mail pages, just verify that the information is correct. You
don't mention ISA, but in particular if you upgraded to ISA 2004 as part of
the SP install, you definitely need to re-run the CEICW.

When you view the queues in ESM, is there anything insightful at the bottom
of the screen under "additional queue information?" Is Outlook giving an
error when messages fail to send, or logging anything in the app log on the
client PC? When you say you can telnet in, can you do that from outside
your network as opposed to just from your desktop PC?

I wouldn't even consider formatting and reinstalling at this point.
Whatever this is is fixable, and at worst, you should be able to get free
support for a failed SP install.

Last night I upgraded SBS 2003 to SP1 following the step by step
instructions which included the following steps:

Install Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1
Install Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 Service Pack 1
Install Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 1
Install Windows XP SP2 for Client Deployment
Install Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1

Immediately following I lost all smtp traffic, the local queue is just
filling up.

I have no event log errors except for the fact that SharePoint will not
start and IIS produces and error upon boot, stating it had to close. The
company web is also broken.

I was running GFI mail filter and removed it to see if the upgrades
botched
it, this had no affect.

Any ideas? I'm about the re-format and start from scratch, what a pain.
