1. The command given attempts to create a direct connection to the email service on the server, if you get a respoonse then the connection succeeded so the server must be up and working and the mail service must also be running and accepting connections.

2. It's possible to have one Blueyonder account working correctly and a different one failing. The different mail accounts may be held on different servers. If only one mail server is down then it might affect only a limited subset of accounts.
