btw, I am using Exchange server, and I am able to send emails using Outlook Express from the server. I am also able to send emails using telnet, and a C# Console application.
What's up with the Redmine app?
Answering my own question... Thanks for the help out there, people :)

The problem was fixed by setting up the email.yml below, and then RESARTING the mongrel services.
1. Set up email.yml as follows:
- Outgoing email settings
production:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
address: 110.65.22.22
port: 25
domain: banana.com
authentication: :none
development:
delivery_method: :smtp
smtp_settings:
address: 10.65.22.22
port: 25
domain: banana.com
authentication: :none
2. Redmine runs some ‘hidden’ services which need to be restarted (3 services in total – Redmine Apache, RedmineMongrel1 and RedmineMongrel2). Note that ALL of these need to be restarted, not just RedmineApache.

I had the same issue. Restarting the server solved the problem.
