As per the title.

Outbound emails to vodafone.co.nz sitting in Exchange queue retrying.

Only one MX record, which points to redmx.iqhive.com (203.118.158.241).

I can successfully ping it, but am unable to connect via telnet on port 25.

Hi @Paul1977

I am able to connect to redmx.iqhive.com (203.118.158.241) on port 25 from 5 different locations around the world.

That link you posted is for hosted services retirement only, vodafone.co.nz, email forwarding is still in place and I have tested this also.

I had forgotten that our firewall blocks all outbound port 25 traffic from the PC I was testing from! So the problem isn't what i thought.

I've PMed you more details.

Thanks

Could be same (might not be) but I cannot get anything to ***@ihug.co.nz which has been working as a forward to gmail to come thru. Got an alert from a provider not used in years and can't update email with them until I action link on file they send. Maybe the forwards are dead (or broken).
