We are expencing sporatic delays in email delivery from an external source.
They are getting the following response back after sending the email. This
doesn't happen everytime and I am trying to figure out why they are getting
this message. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

We are running SBS 2003 with SP1 on two nic cards with a ISA 2004 on
the server. Our router is in bridge mode. We are running a
spam filter on the server but the senders email address is on the safe list.

HI Ted,

Welcome to SBS newsgroup.

Issue description:
============

I understand that you encountered email sending delay when you sending the
internet emails.

Analyzing and suggestion:
=============

Generally speaking, the issue should be caused by many factors, let us
first isolate on SBS side to see if we can do any thing on the SBS side.

1. As the issue did not occur on all the internet emails, we may consider
the SBS is set correctly, in order to track the special internet email, we
suggest using message tracking on this special message to see if it is
sending out to the internet. You can enable the message tracking according
to KB article below:

246856 How to enable message tracking in Exchange 2000 Server and in
Exchange
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=246856

2. If the email is sending out after using the method above, the issue
should existing on the remote mail server, you may have to check if the
remote server is work properly or not.
3. Please also ask your ISP to help you check if there are some special
settings for delay sending email to special email domain, for example you
can check if you have deployed any filter on the ISP side to filtering
email to special domain or for special content.
4. Internet connection on the remote mail server could also cause this
issue.

Please note that if the issue occur on special external email domain, it is
your best interest to focus on the remote mail server and your ISP. We have
no such control on SBS to control this issue.

Thanks for your understanding on this issue, please feel free to post back
the results. I am glad to be of assistance.



Best regards,

Charles Yang (MSFT)
