This just to tune it a bit more in...... We had an similar issue, it all came down to where some of our mail servers where not resolvable by the DNS Server (Reverse Resolve). Some MTA's do an reverse lookup before accepting the MTA session.

After trying all of the suggestions provided so far (such as explicitly rejecting ident, bouncing the CVP service, changing SMTP security timeouts, etc.) rejectng ident seemed to do the trick most of the time. Out of 10 e-mails sent out at once to hotmail, nine are delivered on the first try while one fails several times with "connection to final MTA failed". Thanks to everyone for your help.

When sending e-mails to web based e-mail services such as hotmail and yahoo, we will notice between 3 - 5 "Connection to final MTA failed" messages in the fw-1 log. When sending them to private corporate e-mail accounts, such as [email protected], we do not get the "Connection to final MTA failed" messages. We've already tried settng Policy-->Properties---> "Accept outgoing packets originating from gateway" to "first". However, the symptom still exists. Can you or someone suggest reasoning as to why we are getting the "Connection to final MTA failed" messages with web based e-mail destinations and not with private corporate e-mail destinations? Can anyone suggest a remedy? Note, that without using an SMTP resource, any message to any e-mail account passes on the first attempt without any error message.
