We have been experiencing a lot of delays when switching to Exchange 2013. We currently use SpamHero as our spam filter. The flow is like this:
- Messages sent to Spam Hero
- Spam Hero sends to us which goes through our Cisco ASA 5540 firewalls
- Hits our CAS01 server which is just CAS and HUB roles
- Then goes to the mailbox server
We experience sometimes days worth of delayed messages and the delivery logs on our spam filter show this:
- status=deferred (conversation with outlook.domain.com[**********] timed out while sending message body)
- said: 451 4.7.0 Timeout waiting for client input (in reply to end of DATA command))
I seem to see it more with larger messages.
