Check /var/log/maillog on both boxes,

you should see a log message on the origin machine and the onward
machine of the form

(I've replaced actual names with CAPS)

Feb 25 10:37:32 SERVER1 sm-mta[74139]: q1OIevSE033413-*MSGID*:
to=<info@DOMA...>, delay=15:56:34, xdelay=00:01:15, mailer=esmtp,
pri=2919788, relay=SOME.RELAY. [X.X.86.167], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred:
Operation timed out with [SERVER]

What does the Stat say on the first box, if its anything other than Sent
Ok, then it'll say why. ( deferred, refused etc).

Check the logs on the 2nd server for the same message.

Post extracts from both boxes if you need further help

good luck

Paul.
