Unable to Telnet port 25 from Guest

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to test the SMTP connectivity from my IIS6 web server (vm). After fooling around with PHP I realised that I can't even telnet to the MXSERVER (non vm) server which is on the same subnet. It's pingable, I can remote desktop to this server but a telnet session to port 25 doesn't work.

 

It works from all my physical servers but from any of my VMs it doesn't work.[/b]

 

Has anyone had a problem like this before? I can telnet to port 80 on web servers, it's looking like it's port 25 might be the problem.

 

Error that my VM guests are getting:

Connecting To MXSERVER...Could not open connection to the host, on port 25: Connect failed

 

Client: IIS6 Web server (VM)

Server: 2003 Server with exchange 2003 (Physical)

 

I'm open to ideas
