Re: aol..

Hi Patrick,

The MX is resolved to the mail servers addresses, like mailin-01.mx.aol.com
to mailin-04.mx.aol.com. These are all AOL's email server. That means your
DNS work fine.

Do the other steps have any effect on this issue? If all steps unable to
help you to resolve this issue, please gather the information I mentioned
in my previous reply and send to me.

If there's anything else about this issue I can do for you, please do not
hesitate to let me know.

Thank you and have a nice day,

Best regards,

Terence Liu (MSFT)

Hello Patrick,

Thank you for posting here.

According to your description, I understand that you unable to send
email
to AOL after you change the ISP. If I have misunderstood the problem,
please don't hesitate to let me know.

Based on my research, I suggest we try the following steps to see if we
can
resolve this issue:

1. Please ensure you check all factors in the following page. Especially
the Blacklisting, Improper DNS resolution of Remote Server, PTR Record.
What to Check When Exchange Cannot Send Email to Certain Domains

http://blogs.technet.com/sbs/archive/2008/01/03/what-to-check-when-exchange-
cannot-send-email-to-certain-domains.aspx

2. If we unable to resolve this issue after steps above, I think this is
mostly because the AOL block your new IP address.

If the aol.com is blocking your new IP, you need to get it touch with
them
to get the IP unblocked. Please refer to the following page:
http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554rtrsc.html

3. If you send email outbound thru smarthost, this will be the smarthost
issue, you may need to contact he smarthost support for help.

4. Ensure you can resolve the MX record of aol.com on your SBS:

a. Open cmd on SBS
b. Run the following commands:
nslookup
set type=mx
aol.com

Do you resolve the MX aol.com to IP address?

If we cannot resolve the issue after we perform the steps above, please
help me collect some information for further investigation:

1. Please save the NDR as msg file and send to me.

2. Enable SMTP logging and gather SMTP log to troubleshoot the issue:

A. Open Exchange System Manager, expand Servers -> <Server name> ->
Protocols -> SMTP, right-click "Default SMTP Virtual Server" and click
Properties.

B. Under the General tab, check the option "Enable Logging".

C. With "W3C Extended Log File Format", click "Properties".

D. Under "General Properties", make sure "Use local time for file naming
and rollover" is CHECKED.

E. Switch to the "Extended Properties", and then select to enable All
the
logging Options.

F. Click OK to apply the modification.

G. Right-click Default SMTP Virtual Server and click Stop.

H. Right-click Default SMTP Virtual Server and click Start to restart
the
SMTP server.

I. Reproduce the issue, repeat step G to stop Default SMTP Virtual
Server,
copy out or zip the SMTP log files in the
"%systemroot%\system32\logfiles\SmtpSvc1" folder, and then restart the
"Default SMTP Virtual Server".

I hope these steps will give you some help.

Thanks and have a nice day!

HI Patrick:

Your public DNS records look ok, with the following possiblity.

<snip>
WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a host
other
than
what it really is (the SMTP greeting should be a 3-digit code,
followed
by a
space or a dash, then the host name). If your mailserver sends out
E-mail
using this domain in its EHLO or HELO, your E-mail might get
blocked
by
anti-spam software. This is also a technical violation of RFC821
4.3
(and
RFC2821 4.3.1). Note that the hostname given in the SMTP greeting
should
have an A record pointing back to the same server. Note that this
one
test
may use a cached DNS record.

sbs.csconsultingservice.com claims to be host
csconsultingservice.com
[but
that host is at 205.178.145.65 (may be cached), not 69.69.245.61].
<br />
<end snip>

You could also check on the various block lists to see if your
domain
or
ip
are on one or more. AOL is very aggressive about not accepting
mail.

Can you please post the exact NDR?
