Re: How to Change SMTP Server -- MIDRANGE-L

Did you stop and restart the SMTP server?

I'd open a ticket with IBM.

Jack,

Our parent company has our email setup on Office 365.
Our current SMTP server is over 10 years old and we can’t find a log to
look at.

One easy guess it that it was never coming thru the SMTP server before.
You don't state:

* what sort of destination you are receiving your test email at
(another IBM i?)

* whether you checked the logs of the old SMTP server to see if the
email came thru there.
