Thanks, Graeme. Something else funky is going on there because the
remote SMTP server is still timing out:
2007-01-31 13:40:02 1HBDbg-00013F-1T == sales@??? R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp defer (0): SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<vdanen@???> SIZE=4721: host hostgator.com [67.18.54.2]: 421 gator.hostgator.com: SMTP command timeout - closing connection
Not really sure why unless it's doing a sender verify and is timing out
because the telnet to it worked fine.
I'll have to do some reading to see why this is happening. But at least
I'm not getting those TLS errors which is good.
