Exchange 2003 I can recieve , but i can't send Emails
Afternoon,
I have been going around circles trying to resolve this. I have an exchange server 2003 that can receive emails but cant send out. late last week, we had 47000 spam emails that could not be sent and had the queue cleared and now nothing appears in the queue when an email is sent and no external users receive emails from this server.

Go to www.mxtoolbox.com and validate that your server is not on a block list as well as reverse-DNS records are fine. Check your connector on Exchange and validate there are no errors in logs.

Dumb question. Since that massive mail queue flood, have you rebooted this server? If not, please do so.
