Hi,
One of our exchange server is not able to deliver a mail to another mailserver. The following sequence takes place in the smtp log:
1. The connection is opened with the other server
2. The server identifies itself "EHLO - mail.mailserver.be 0 0 4 0 63 SMTP - - - -"
3. The other server replies "250-mail.othermailserver.com 0 0 25 0 94 SMTP"
4. "MAIL - FROM:<Administrator@othermailserver.be>+SIZE=2208 0 0 4 0 94 SMTP"
5. "250+sender+<Administrator@mailserver.be>+ok 0 0 39 0 125 SMTP - - - -"
6. "RCPT - TO:<administrator@othermailserver.com> 0 0 4 0 125 SMTP"
7. "250+recipient+<administrator@othermailserver.com>+ok"
8. "DATA - - 0 0 4 0 469 SMTP"
Our mailserver sends the data of the mail
9. The other server replies with the following message: "354+go+ahead 0 0 12 0 500 SMTP"
10. All communication stops, there is no "250+ok:++Message+2944586+accepted"
11. Eventually the server times out and tries again.
Wireshark confirms what I've seen in the smtp logs. I have no issues sending the mail to other domains.
I have undertaken the following actions on the server so far:
Installed every update available for Windows + every update for the exchange server.
I have also installed every driver update available.

Hi
Ok, you can send to everyone excepts one domain?
Maybe they have problem?

The client hasn't had any more issues since the driver update. I believe that the nic driver update was the key to solving the problem.
