Platforms
SQL Reporting Server (Win Server Standard)
Exchange (Windows 2012, Exchange 2013)
Reporting Server has stopped sending emails. The Error message beside the Subscription that "Failure sending mail: The transport failed to contact to the server."
The Eventlog on the Reporting Server shows Event ID 122 "Scheduling and Delivery Processor cannot connect to the SMTP server w12-ch-ex1 that is used for email delivery"
From the same Reporting Server, I use telnet to send an email to myself with the same settings as what is in the configuration as the Report server, using the same smtp settings and sending email address and I can send an email every time. This is to test the Report server smtp settings and to verify that the report server is set as an email relay. Again, no issues sending emails in this fashion.
"Sometimes" when I stop and then restart the Reporting service, emails will go through via the reporting service, but this isn't consistent. Sometimes if I recreate a subscription, then the email works for awhile, maybe even for 2 or 3 notices...and then it stops.
Nothing had really changed as far as I know and then all of a sudden the users started getting inconsistent reports and then it just stopped.
Any troubleshooting advice/steps would be appreciated.
