Action: Check to see that the TCP/IP kernel is installed and configured.

GWIA: Unable to listen on SMTP port

Source: GroupWise Internet Agent.
Explanation: The TCP/IP kernel is not installed correctly or the GWIA is unable to take control of port 25 (SMTP port number). Other processes might have control of port 25, thereby preventing the GWIA from taking control of port 25.
Action: Unload the TCP/IP kernel then reload it. If another process has control of port 25, unloading the TCP/IP kernel shows it.
