Running Small Business Server behind an ASA5505.<br />
<br />
For about the last six weeks, a client has been having problems receiving emails from some clients. &nbsp;The emails get delayed and then fail permanently, but never with an Exchange error message. &nbsp;The error messages say things like &quot;technical details of temporary failure:write error&quot; or &quot;technical detail of permanent failure: write error&quot; &nbsp;I have seen &quot;SMTP timeout&quot; as well.<br />
<br />
There are many people having this issue on the web none seem to have an answer. &nbsp;My clients is getting upset and I am having no luck finding out what is wrong.<br />
<br />
Any help would be appreciated.<br />

Emails failing with &quot;write error&quot;

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.
