Run a message tracking for the emails that are stuck in the queue. Do you have a SMTP smart host or you are routing directly thorugh DNS?Just to test and check, can you try creating seperate SMTP connector for yahoo and see if that can relay your emails. Make sure that you are routing yahoo emails directly thrugh the DNS and not through any relay servers.Repeat the same for hotmail and let us know if that makes any difference.Raj

Hi,When you find the messagewhen you runmessage tracking, please paste the message history here. Also please try to check if your Domain or Exchange Server address has been add to the blacklist.Check for RBL blacklist listing of Outgoing IP addresses , the Sender IP might be Blocked a) <http://openrbl.org/> b) <http://www.moensted.dk/spam/>

Hi,Please close"open relay" on the Exchange Server?Please install antivirus application on the Exchange Server.Also I recommend you put the exchange server behind ISA related firewall server.Regards,Xiu
