  Hi all

  The problem in this case is TLS. The Exchange server is an EXCH2003 and it needs to run TLS towards another company. The server already have several other connectors that use TLS (about 6-7 of them) and they all work as intended. The connector in question is created precisely like the others, but something is not right.

  The outgoing mail get stuck in the outgoing queue and remains there. If I force a connection and check the logs I only get the smtp log below. I have set maximum level in diagnosticlogging on the server, but i get no events logged related to this.

  As can be seen from the listed log below, nothing more happens after the outbound response is Ready-to-start-TLS.

  Any ideas and inputs on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
