I am exporting emails to a mailbox with the Export Bult Tool, and while most emails end up restored to a mailbox, some email end up in the C:\Program Files\GFI\MailArchiver\Core\SMTP\Retry folders. 

Why does tha happen?

CAn you explain how the exporting works, ie what directories it hits, why, etc??

Hi

Make sure that you've configured your SMTP server correctly in the GFI MailArchiver settings and that this server allows relaying from the MAR machine

Hi

Emails rejected by the SMTP server are placed to the Retry folder and then retried every 3 minutes. The reason could be routing / relaying problem, antispam, etc

Yes, from the Core\Data\SMTPSettings.xml file.
But may I ask why would you need this?

I am trying to figure out why this is happening.  I see that it establishes connection, but it also seem like it is not connecting long enough or the connection terminates

Hi

Try to connect to your SMTP server from MAR machine using telnet on port 25 and send an email manually

i tried that and i am able to send an email manually, what i would like to know is why in the smptsend log i am getting this
2007-07-26,11:47:01,999,1,"#000015F4","#00000010","error  ","SMTPSend","ERROR: Failed to process queue[System error: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine]"

i do not have antivirus on the server neither

emails are coming over but they are trickiling in instead of a steady stream coming in, when i see the smtp session on my bridgehead server the connecton last at most 30 seconds, then it disconnects

because of this all the larger emails are not coming over since the session does stay connected long enough to send the large emails

Hi,

Do you have any issues with large emails received from the internet?

What is the size of the smallest and largest files in C:\Program Files\GFI\MailArchiver\Core\SMTP\Retry?

Could it be that your mail server is rejecting large emails?

Thank you

Hi,

The error from the debuglogs seems to indicate that the connection has been closed by the remote server. Do you have any Anti-spam software that could be causing this?

Do the emails in the retry folder have anything in common? For example is the sender of the message always an external email address? This may indicate that Anti-Spam software is checking the SPF record for the domain, and is failing.
