MOSS 2007 server not sending email for domain

So one of our Sharepoint 2007 Servers was not sending out email to anyone anymore after a datacenter move. The reason was dns issues related to the move.

Here is how it was solved:
MB - per yesterdays research and changes: A request was sent to NetSource to create a reverse DNS for the IP 68.70.161.12 to point to portal.harmonicconsulting.com. HarmonicConsulting.com MX records we edited to add portal.harmonicconsulting.com as a e-mail server with a low priority. The SMTP server was reconfigured to relay mail for the harmonicconsulting.com domain to google and Sharepoint was configured to use the local SMTP server to send mail. Rlaying to harmoinic from the SMTP server worked - I can't seem to add myself to the notification list here so I will wait to hear badck from the real bacuff to verify this is working now. - Mark
