Cannot Send/Recieve emails from server

[celliott]

Im currently having huge problems on our server with sending out emails. No matter what host I send an email to, its always rejected.

Here is what happens when the message is delivered:

I have already tried forcing a reinstall of exim with /scripts/eximup --force and that has not made any difference. I have been able to send and recieve emails fine up until yesterday, when I noticed the mail queue was huge from emails not being sent out from our server.

Any advice is greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Fixed.

I cleared the deny list in Chirp's firewall and now all is good. Seems like it blocked the IP's of some email hosts. Bit strange,
