Re: SMTP mail routing issue

Thanks.  We have "Use mail router" set to None and we have "forward
outgoing mail to router through firewall" not checked.

Do you have a mail router configured?  This would be found under the
SMTP properties.

Mail router
Specifies the mail router you want to use when Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol (SMTP) cannot find the name and address of the recipient in
either the system alias table or the personal alias table.

The system also uses this mail router when SMTP is unable to resolve the
recipient's address. If you do not want mail routing, specify None for
Use mail router.

Forward outgoing mail to router through firewall
Specifies that you want to forward outbound mail to the configured mail
router to get through the network's firewall. We recommend that you
check this if your outbound mail is destined for a host in a remote
location. The intermediate system that you use as a mail router does not
have to be a System i platform, or at any particular system level. The
only requirement for this system is a host table that contains all the
host systems that it needs to route mail to. There can only be one
intermediate system for routing between the source and target systems.
No nesting of mail routers is allowed. If you want the router to go
through a firewall, the mail router must be authorized to forward mail
through the firewall in order to deliver the mail.

We are running 7.1 of i on lpar GDIHQ.  It uses the QTmmSendMail api to
send out email.  A sample address would be rob@xxxxxxxxxx  This should
route out of that box and go to our email.  Our email is Lotus Domino.
Domino has three smtp servers:  INTERNOTES, INTERNOTES02 and
INTERNOTES3.
All three of these Domino servers run on different boxes.  They are all
running 7.1 of i and 8.5.2 of Lotus Domino.  The problem is that if
INTERNOTES is down then the email
doesn't route.  Once INTERNOTES is back up attempts to jump start stuck
email are unsuccessful.  We've tried ENDMSF followed by STRMSF *RESET.
This did not help.
