Well, I don't know what the heck is up with Norton Anti-Virus, but it seems it has something to do with that....
I disabled NAV (becuase I noticed it only came up when i sent a real e-mail and not a test message) and lo and behold, it werks!!!
What this means? Well it's obviously not SMEs fault, it just happened to be a severe coincidence (two SME servers that stopped working just after update 4 was installed).
I'll track it down if I can but for now I am turning off the outgoing scanning.
BTW, after I turned it off, I also got my e-mail from the PC repair shop I work for... aparently this could be a wide spread problem with NAV and e-Smith boxes.
Thanks anyways!
