duhdrummer Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 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 I've gotten rid of outdated messages, along with hugely sized messages.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!!!!

Mattimeo Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Have you checked your connectors? Did you do any recent updates? Also, are you at the latest service pack?

jonovate Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I had a similar problem.. but on ours it was spam coming into the system and Exchange froze the connector; I would double check to see if your que is outbound or inbound and if its frozen or not.

duhdrummer Posted May 10, 2005 Author Share Posted May 10, 2005 No messages or links are frozen. All links are being reported as active. Messages inside the links however, are being marked as queued. There are no connectors, so connectors shouldn't be an issue. No recent updates applied, not the latest service pack.

jonovate Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Yah double check that you have the MS Exchange Services and SMTP Service started. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/318797-exchange-2000-queuing/#findComment-585905372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eversurf Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 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!!!
