 I have a strange issue with my SBS 2003 Exchange SP2.
 
I added a new DNS server to a remote office yesterday.  Ever since then, my email seems to have stopped working, but not completely.  For some reason it seems like spam is getting through, but no valid email.  We can send email just fine, just can't receive it.  Obviously it has something to do with DNS, I'm just not sure to what degree.  Any ideas on what I should check?
 
Thanks in advance guys, I'm in a real bind here.

think we will need a bit more info on this one.

Where is the SBS box, what is the dns settings on here?
can you provide an ipconfig /all

What is the role for the dns server in the remote office, dont say dns :p

Are you receiving via pop3 or smtp?

Thanks for the reply Robert.  I was able to figure out what the problem was.  For some reason, when I added the new dns server, the MXRecord on the exchange server wasn't recognized.  I deleted it and created a new one.  After restarting dns everything started working again.
 
Thanks again, I really appreciate the help.
