[ZendTo] Re: Sending outbound emails still not working - HELP!

Sorry, don't understand that at all. The message is just a plain text 
email. You haven't got any international characters in the email address 
or message anywhere, have you? If not, then it really is just a very 
plain text email message.

Run Wireshark on the Exchange server or the ZendTo server and trap the 
networking traffic between the two to see exactly what it's sending.

Have you not got any other non-Exchange mail server you could send the 
message to, to try to get a more sensible error message?

Neither I, nor any other ZendTo user, has ever reported this problem. It 
just uses the MTA installed on the ZendTo server to send a plain text 
email message. Nothing weird at all, it's as simple as it can get.

Jules.
