RE: Strange email sending problem

Jeff, we had similar problems due to firewall issues.  Try CHGSMTPA (F4),
page down to MAILROUTER and FIREWALL.  When you have a mailrouter defined,
Firewall indicates that all mail should go through the defined route to
bypass firewall issues.  If FIREWALL(*NO), then your as400 is trying to talk
to the remote mailservers directly.
