Checking the Firewall box did the trick. Thanks for all the input.
I'm assuming that this SMTP communication is anonymous? Can it be an
authenticated SMTP session so that I can set the proper security on my
XCH SMTP sink?

First, make sure that you have the exchange server set up using the
CHGSMTPA command:

Second, this is something I got from the list a long time ago. I just
can't remember who posted it.

"End the SMTP server
TRCTCPAPP APP(*SMTPCLT) SET(*ON) - prompt and hit enter
strart the SMTP server
send an e-mail using the snddst command
wait a minute or so and do a
trctcpapp app(*SMTPCLT) SET(*OFF) TITLE('SETTINGS AS of this
trace')
when this is done you should have 3 spool files, the last one will
contain the conversation that happened between your mail server /
external
servers, etc.
One other thing is to check the exchange server to see if the AS400
is
allowed to relay (must have an entry see below
You can specify IP addresses from which Exchange is to allow
relaying.
In the Exchange System manager, browse to the SMTP server, and get
the
properties window. On our system, it is called "Default SMTP Virtual
Server" and is found under the Exchange Server, Protocols, SMTP. On
the
"Access" tab there is a "Relay" button. Assuming that relaying is
restricted, add your system's IP to the Allow list, and away you go."

subject: AS400 > Exchange
Hello,
I am having trouble configuring AS400 and Exchange to communicate. For
now, all I need is the ability to send emails from AS400 to Exchange
2003 on the same subnet, same domain.
I have the internal iSeries SMTP server running and answering on port
25. I have a SMTP sink running on Exchange that accepts anonymous
connections and AS400 is set to 'Route' to that IP. But nothing ever
comes through. SMTP logs on the AS400 would be helpful.
