Actually, it's probably 512 bytes to 1024 bytes.
Take a look at edns0, assuming you are running Windows Server 2003.

And
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828263/en-us
And

(I've asked for these three KBs to be consolidated. Since they aren't
Exchange related, my request is probably very low on the list.)

You are not going to believe this, but the fix to this was to increase
the DNS packet size on my pix firewall from 512 K to 1024 K. Once I did
that all traffic started to go through for AOL and Yahoo.

Thanks it was 4.4.7. If the problem is with AOL and Yahoo then there is
nothing that I can do right?

Subject: Sending mail to AOL and
Yahoo
Is any one else having difficulty in sending mail to AOL and
YAHOO.
DNS is resolving the MX records for these domains, we can
receive mail from these domains, but when we send mail it is just sitting in
the queue in the server saying that the remote server did not respond to the
connection attempt.
All other mail flow is working correctly.
I have restarted the SMTP service twice and have turned on
logging and nothing is showing. Just the same message in the event logs
once logging was turned on, remote server did not respond to the connection
attempt.
Any ideas
Exchange 2003, Windows 2003 no service packs.

| Justin,
Well, maybe. I've had the edns0 problem in the past
with a couple of clients. But, more likely, it's one
of the recent problems I've had with clients of mine
sending to AOL:
1) As of a couple of months ago, AOL no longer accepts
mail from servers that do not have PTR records
defined.
2) AOL has its own internal scanning mechanisms to try
to identify and block domains and/or subnets
attempting to spew spam to AOL subscribers. Even
though a particular domain/subnet may not appear on
any RBL lists, AOL could still be blocking it.
To determine which it is, telnet to port 25 on one of
the AOL SMTP servers and try to manually send a
message to a valid AOL address. Make sure you do this
from the actual Exchange server on which the AOL
queues are filling up. The error message you will
receive from the AOL server will include a link to a
website that will explain the reason why AOL will not
accept a connection from you.
In my most recent case, my client switched ISP's and,
by chance, received a set of IP addresses that had
been blocked by AOL for a long time. AOL tech support
was TOTALLY unresponsive and it took me about 6 weeks
and many, many phone calls to AOL to finally get the
subnet removed from their blocking lists. Be prepared
for a lot of pain dealing with AOL on this.
As soon as you determine the problem, please let us
know so I can bill Michael for $0.25. :-)

A key indicator is whether the connection attempt fails or not. Edns0 is
typically indicated when the remote server doesn't respond (according to
Exchange). Reverse DNS is typically indicated with a successful
connection and a 4xx error. The internal scanning mechanisms are
typically indicated when the e-mail immediately bounces with a 5xx
error.
In regards to AOL, as soon as you get a block of IP addresses, signing
up to be notified by AOL as to "bad" behavior in that block is a really
good idea (they call this their "Feedback Loop" and they are much more
responsive to organizations who are whitelisted and in the feedback
loop). See http://postmaster.aol.com.
One of my techs or myself has to deal with them almost daily on some
level with the 1,000+ e-mail domains we host on a variety of platforms.

| Don't know how if this has been answered by the forum but I'd like to
add my 2 cents.
AOL is blocking port 25. Instead, they are using port 587 which is the
default port for authenticated e-mail.
http://postmaster.aol.com/faq/port25faq.html
To be added to their White list, you will need to fill out the 'White
list' request form.

Do you have any sort of anti-virus scanning your outbound
email--specifically Norton 10--on your server? This could be causing
problems with sending emails. The same thing happened to us some time
ago and that was the issue.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] FW: Sending mail to AOL and Yahoo
Justin,
Well, maybe. I've had the edns0 problem in the past
with a couple of clients. But, more likely, it's one
of the recent problems I've had with clients of mine
sending to AOL:
1) As of a couple of months ago, AOL no longer accepts
mail from servers that do not have PTR records
defined.
2) AOL has its own internal scanning mechanisms to try
to identify and block domains and/or subnets
attempting to spew spam to AOL subscribers. Even
though a particular domain/subnet may not appear on
any RBL lists, AOL could still be blocking it.
To determine which it is, telnet to port 25 on one of
the AOL SMTP servers and try to manually send a
message to a valid AOL address. Make sure you do this
from the actual Exchange server on which the AOL
queues are filling up. The error message you will
receive from the AOL server will include a link to a
website that will explain the reason why AOL will not
accept a connection from you.
In my most recent case, my client switched ISP's and,
by chance, received a set of IP addresses that had
been blocked by AOL for a long time. AOL tech support
was TOTALLY unresponsive and it took me about 6 weeks
and many, many phone calls to AOL to finally get the
subnet removed from their blocking lists. Be prepared
for a lot of pain dealing with AOL on this.
As soon as you determine the problem, please let us
know so I can bill Michael for $0.25. :-)
