I'm trying to configure a Microsoft SSRS 2014 server to send out emails. As far as I can tell all the settings are correct in RS Configuration Manager, and I can send an email from the server itself using TELNET commands to our SMTP provider (so I believe it's unlikely to be connectivity).
The error in the SSRS logs looks like a DNS error, but I can resolve the name of "mydomain.com" on the SSRS server using NSLOOKUP. (This is not the real domain name, just illustrating)
Where else should I be looking?
Thanks
Error:

You can verify setting in the Extension
Name="Report Server Email"section of your rsreportserver.config file.
