Email to Public Folder failing

I am experiencing sporadic email delivery to public folders. At first I thought it was a Content Filtering issue, but now I'm not sure. I can describe the following symptoms, though not sure if all are related:

My test "sender" is a POP3 email account that I have through an unrelated domain, configured in Outlook Express, to keep separated from company email that is all Exchange Server 2007. When I send a message from me@pop3.com to pubfold@company.com, nothing happens. I don't get an NDR back, and nothing arrives in the public folder, or the spam quarantine account, no indication at all that I sent anything.

When I try to telnet to the Exchange Server using the Pulic IP, port 25, the connection fails. I can connect using the name: smtp.company.com or smtp.company.local on port 25. When I use telnet commands to send a message from me@pop3.com to pubfold@company.com, all replies are OK (sender, recipient, etc.) and the mail gets sent to the delivery queue. Soon after that, I receive an NDR in my Outlook Express account for me@pop3.com. I'm going to attach the exact NDR message, and maybe someone can tell me where to start looking for the problem.

Thanks.

In ESM, I open the PFMC and right click the folder in question, in "properties" - "Exchange General" the box next to that setting is not checked. Is there some other location for this setting? If not, that doesn't appear to be my problem.
