All right people. I'm in need of some expert advice.

Running Exchange 2000 in 2000 domain enviornment. Exchange is also a DC, possibly the Global Catalogue server (how do I check?). I've noticed that there are a bunch of messages stuck in certain queue links. There're 17 messages to aol.com and 7 to hotmail.com.

Sending email internally works, and sending to yahoo mail appears to work as well. I've looked at everything and can't seem to determine what it's holding them back. I've gotten rid of outdated messages, along with hugely sized messages. What's left are normal sized recent messages that should go.

Please help!

P.S. My current queue growth is at 103 MIN!!!!

Alright so it seems to me that his email is working fine. He can send to yahoo.com and he can send internally, but he can't send to AOL or Hotmail. It could be DNS related or it could be because your mail is rejected by the other servers. Did you have your ISP setup your Reverse DNS lookup record. I know for a fact that AOL will not accept mail if that is not setup. It's a protection agaist spamming.

Try sending to different domain and see if it goes. Delete everything in the Queues and restart all your exchanges services. Anything in the Event viewer?

Have fun!!!
