I'm getting the message: "500 5.3.3 Unrecognized command" from Exchange server and seeing in the Exchange Server logs that it's tarpitting my smtp sender despite the fact that:

  1. I added a Receive Connector for my ip that allows connection, uses "Externally Secure"

  2. I ran the commands (with the actual server name):

CODE:

Set-ReceiveConnector "MyTrusted connector (Servername)" -MaxAcknowledgementDelay 0

Set-ReceiveConnector "MyTrusted connector (Servername)" -TarpitInterval 0                     

Despite all that, it STILL fails! Any idea what's wrong?
