Bizarre Exchange issue; cannot send to external addresses, from all but ONE user

exchange-2007

I have a small Exchange environment, 10 PCs running Outlook 2007, 3 Droid phones, 2 iPhones and a couple Ipod touches. I came in this morning to the realization that external recipients are not getting mail from us. There are no errors or kickbacks, the mail just disappears. Here's the weird part, the Apple devices connect via EAS, and are able to send no problem, recipient gets the message. The Android devices and all Outlook users (EXCEPT ONE!) are able to send, but the recipient never gets the mail, its like its sent to nowhere. OWA gives the same result as Outlook.

Message tracking in Exchange Console shows the messages going out.

My SMTP logs show exactly the same result for a message that wasn't delivered, as one that was by that one user that is able to send.

All mail to internal users works properly.

EDIT: There is only ONE user that can send, and this is through Outlook or OWA. To clarify,

User1 cannot send with Outlook or OWA, or his Droid using EAS to my gmail address, but can connect his iTouch to EAS and it sends fine.

User2 can send to my gmail account using Outlook, OWA (from any computer) or his iTouch. This is the ONLY user not experiencing any issues

I cannot send to my gmail account using Outlook or OWA, but my iPhone works using EAS

Best Answer

Try creating a new smtp sendmail connector, make sure namespace is * and its internet based delivery. see if you can right click disable for the existing one after the new one is setup and then try delivery.
