Notifications failing in Project Server 2007 queue

Greetings fellow networkers,

My team has a unique issue apparently, because I haven't found this exact
issue on any site that I've perused thus far. Hence, I turn to posting a
message to see if any of you can assist in my team's endeavor of Email
Notifications in Microsoft Project Server 2007 (MSPS07).

Environment: We have a stand-alone server installation of MSPS07. Shared
Services is setup for the standard Virtual SMTP Server pointing to our
Exchange Server.

Setup: The outgoing e-mail settings are setup with the fully qualified
domain and server names. The incoming e-mail settings are enabled, the domain
name inserted in the display address field, and the IP address is in place
for the Safe E-Mail Servers setting. (We tried both with and without the
subnet addition, as per MS TechNet.) Alerts and Reminders is set up as per MS
TechNet, as well: the SMTP mail server as the fully qualified server/domain
name, the from address has been tried with a non-service account as well as a
service account in Active Directory (AD), the company domain has been tried
with the full domain name, as well as the web/e-mail domain name.

Issue: All Job Types flow through the server queue with no problem except
for Notifications. They deliver a Job State of Failed But Not Blocking
Correlation. The specific error has been uploaded to this message at this URL:

Please advise us on any route which may help to resolve this issue.

Thank you very much...

OK, the error message seems to indicate that it's trying to deliver mail to
port 80, which is quite unusual. Also, the virtual broker in the middle
potentially adds a wrinkle. Have you tried sending directly to Exchange on a
standard SMTP port to help isolate the error source?
