Exchange 2010 unable to receive e-mails
Hi,
As from this morning we are unable to receive e-mails externally. All internal e-mail is fine.
We are running SBS 2011.
MX Records are point to the server. I can't see any major error messages appearing in the Event Viewer.
I have re-run 'Set Up your Internet Address' but no good. I tried Telenet 25 and that has responded OK.
Is there anything else I can check to see what the problem is?

Check router is forwarding port 25 to the correct address?

Yes I've checked that and restarted router as well
check the relay setting on smtp, also can you post the error message that r recived while sending emails from outside domain (gmail,yahoo, etc)
Use https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/ to diagnose
how the email come to your server, are you using any spam filter. Please check it
also is there any error message which sender get while sending email to your domain

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
That was the cause. Back pressure. Exchange stops processing email when free disk space drops below a certain level. IIS logs are the usual cause of rapid drop in space.

A little late but will give some more info.
Yes your problem has because the lack of space on the hard drive.
Please note this is the system hard drive, your files can and should be located somewhere else.
To prevent this issue you can assign a different place for your logs and monitor the space manually or automatically. You can also setup some kind of script to run every certain amount of time to wipe clean the "logs Disk" not before you make a backup with the 30 days worth of logs. :-)
