IIS 6.0 SMTP not sending EOM using Pickup Directory/Text F..

This started about 24 hours ago.

I have confirmed this with my upstream SMTP forwarders, and in the
LogFile (C:\WINDOWS\System32\LogFiles\SMTPSVC2). An SMTP connection is
established, target box identified, and data transfer begins. However it
looks like nothing is being sent, and a time-out occurs.

This results in a nice error in the Event Viewer connection reset by
remote computer, or something similar.

I am not running a firewall, and if I telnet on port 25 to a mailhost,
and manually go through the process, an email is generated and sent out
the door.

Is this a problem with the metabase perhaps?

Thank you.

The following is a snippet out of the log file, it will wrap unfortunately.

Hi

You may receive more responses to your question by posting it to the
following newsgroup:
microsoft.public.exchange.admin

The IIS group supports installation and availability of the SMTP service,
however, our Exchange team supports SMTP configuration and functionality.

Hope this helps,
