Hi. On one NT4 box we have LSMTP (box #1) on the other we have LISTSERV+LISTSERV SMTP Service running. (box #2) Distribute jobs are processed by listserv on box #2 then passed to LSMTP on box #1. This usally happens nearly instantly, especially with little teeny test jobs where I'm the only recipient. But over the past few days, it can take upwards of a few hours for this to happen. LSMTP doesn't seem to yet have the mail. I manually walked through SMTP transactions on both boxes. Both SMTP listeners seem to be alive. Neither appears to be taken over by the Microsoft SMTP service (been through that in the past). Both boxes can see each other on port 25. Telnet port 25 from box2->box1 seems to work. Any thoughts on what might be happening? I don't know how I can troubleshoot the LISTSERV SMTP piece; does it have any queue viewing capabilities? hints and tips welcome.... this is a head scratcher.
