mail stuck in edge transport queue
I have a bunch of emails stuck in the edgesync - corp to internet queue and they have been there since friday.
These need to go out before they go NDR, but I can't seem to budge them.
both the hub server and the edge server have connectivity to the interent and I can ping and nslookup -q=mx on the targeted domains with out fail on both machines.
I see no errors in the event logs.
I get zero output at all (zip, nada, nothing) in the SMTPSEND log area. I believe I have that turned on just fine. I've even turned on the IntraOrgConnectionProtocol
I get a connection log and it has some entries that I can't decipher, much less act upon.
"Non-existent domain reported by x.x.x.x" (th ip was correct and it does respond to queries)"
and
"The DNS query for 'SmtpRelayWithinAdSiteToEd
The Queue's Last Error column says "451 4.4.0 DNS query failed. The error was SMTPSEND.DNS.NonExistentDo
First off, what address was it trying to resolve? I've looked at the emails one at a time, and tested connectivity to the recipient and it all tests good.
Anybody got any ideas? I've been struggling with this for hours now since I discovered the problem.
