Exchange2003, Can not send to multi-record SMTP server
I have a problem with my exchange 2003 Server. When I try to send e-mails to customers from a Danish ISP Cybercity I get this message after a few days:
"Could not deliver the message in the time limit specified. Please retry or contact your administrator."
The user I am sending to is on c-mi.dk
When looking at the Cybercity configuration I see this:
> c-mi.dk
Server: temp.premitech.net
Address: 192.168.101.64
Non-authoritative answer:
c-mi.dk MX preference = 100, mail exchanger = mailgate.cybercity.dk
c-mi.dk MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = ywuser.cybercity.dk
mailgate.cybercity.dk internet address = 212.242.40.53
mailgate.cybercity.dk internet address = 212.242.40.4
mailgate.cybercity.dk internet address = 212.242.40.52
ywuser.cybercity.dk internet address = 212.242.40.146
ywuser.cybercity.dk internet address = 212.242.40.82
When I test it I get this :
ywuser.cybercity.dk. - 212.242.40.82 [Could not connect: Could not connect to mail server (connection refused by remote mailserver). NOTE: Per the RFCs, mailservers are allowed to continuously retry this server until it is back online, and not try other MX records (RFC2821 3.9).]
ywuser.cybercity.dk. - 212.242.40.146 [Could not connect: Could not connect to mail server (connection refused by remote mailserver). NOTE: Per the RFCs, mailservers are allowed to continuously retry this server until it is back online, and not try other MX records (RFC2821 3.9).]

mailgate.cybercity.dk. - 212.242.40.52 [Successful connect: Got a good response [250 Ok]]
mailgate.cybercity.dk. - 212.242.40.53 [Successful connect: Got a good response [250 Ok]]
mailgate.cybercity.dk. - 212.242.40.4 [Successful connect: Got a good response [250 Ok]]
Apparently my exchange server does not try all the servers, but keeps trying the first server. Is there anywhere in the exchange configuration that you can change this?
