I have two SMTP servers, one LINUX and the other EXCH2003. I have a few
XPSP2 machines that can not send SMTP mail to these servers... I had
originally thought it was due to a subnet routing issue until I sniffed the
workstations output. I see NO SMPT attempts leaving the workstationsl I have
turned off the firewall services and Shutdown MS Anti-Spyware.. What else
can I check?

Thanks
Carl
 
Have you tried turning off your AV program? Most AV will disble outbound
port 25 to stop mail-worms.
 
YOU DA MAN... It was AV... Thanks... now I just have to figure out how to
enable that port.

It's under whatever category your AV prog. uses to stop mail-worms. You
should be able to specify a list of programs to exclude from that check.
