MS Exchange 2003 - mails not getting through

Hi all

I hope you can help me here cos I am really going nuts!!.

I just setup my new exchange 2003 server. I am running it on a domain controller and its integrated with active directory. I also setup the server as a primary DNS server. I just joined 3 PCs with this domain and all DNS records are OK and I have all alias host records with the correct IP. Ping is fine from server to clients and also vice versa.

Problem is that although I can configure outlook on all PCs with username and everything, the emails I am sending between each other is not arriving. Also outlook is not giving errors...emails just wont arrive in any of the mailboxes! Is there something I can check to see why they are not getting through??

Thanks a lot !

Have you checked that all necessary exchange services are started and that your information store is not dismounted? You could also track a message and see if it gets delivered? Also check the local delivery queue.
