Mail not being delivered

We recently took down one of our servers and now the remaining one will not deliver mail.

Server A (outside our firewall) was set up to receive our mail and deliver it to server B (inside our firewall). Now we took server A down, and redirected our domain. Only server B takes the mail and keeps it in mail.box. It only delivers it if it sees server A is up. I have disabled routing and replication in the connections document, yet it still will not deliver without server A being up.

Thank You,

Do you have a connection document for serverB to internet?

Yes I do have a connections document for server B. It WAS set to replicate to A and route mail. But now, since A is no longer “Suppose to be” running, I disabled replication and routing in the connection document. I did not delete the document. I even disable scheduling.

Best Regards,

Is server B not in the same DNN as other servers within the domain? Looks to me like it is in a DNN with Server A but not with other servers in your domain. Without being in a common DNN with your other servers, it’d need a connection document to route mail.

Durwin,

Are the mails not delivered or do they go dead? Are any attempts made to deliver?

Zip a copy of your primary Domino Directory, names.nsf, without the person/group docs and email is to blog@jaffacake.net and I’ll take a look.

Bill - For reference a DNN is a myth. Notes server became Domino server, but a NNN will always be an NNN and the term DNN was never accepted by Lotus.
