There are few reasons why this could be:
1. Your server has very little entropy, you can check this from
/proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail, if it says a two-digit number,
you probably are going to need some entropy helper, if it's a big
number, you're fine.
2. Some clients don't like STARTTLS, try using SSL port instead.
3. You have some problem(s) in your client machine, verify with some
other machine.
