Thanks for the reply, Our case is the following (I'm online with one of our partners). If ASSP is "in the way", than the symptom happens all the time for that server (It's XCH2k7 btw). If not (I publish port 25 of my inner XCH2k3 server to an alternate IP and ask the colleage on the other site to configure a direct delivery with a new send connector) then email arrives, and no timeout error happens, everything is fine.
I adjusted almost all logging to diagnostic or verbose that is transport related, but only got this: Feb-15-10 17:11:24 Connected: 12.12.12.12:3622 -> 127.127.127.1:225 -> 127,127,127,2:25; Feb-15-10 17:11:24 12.12.12.12 <> MTA offered STARTTLS - converting to SSL; Feb-15-10 17:11:25 12.12.12.12 <> client on port 225 issued STARTTLS - converting to SSL; Feb-15-10 17:11:26 50285-11666 [MessageOK] 12.12.12.12 <[email protected]> to: [email protected] -- Message OK -- [Test]; Feb-15-10 17:21:26 Disconnected: 212.12.12.12; Notice that between the two last lines is a 10 minute gap! I just cannot figure this out. Regards Greybear 2010/2/15 Edmond J. Inomoto <[email protected]> > Hello, > > I encountered something similar to your experience some months ago.
