We've setup a virtual machine (A2) on Azure with a static IP address and we're having trouble receiving email, we can send just fine from the web interface, but mail clients (outlook, iphone, etc) cannot connect either.
I have opened up the ports on the VM firewall for POP, IMAP, SMTP, etc. as well as on the Azure portal's endpoints. I've run some tests using tools on mxtoolbox.com but I keep getting:
Connecting to 23.96.29.172
7/19/2015 1:11:22 PM Connection attempt #1 - Unable to connect after 15 seconds. [15.05 sec]
PWS3v2 15206ms
I've also performed a Port Scan and it shows that ports 25,110,143, are "filtered"
A DNS search for all records returns:
moboysstate.org. 59 IN A 23.96.29.172
moboysstate.org. 3599 IN NS ns3-06.azure-dns.org.
moboysstate.org. 3599 IN NS ns4-06.azure-dns.info.
moboysstate.org. 3599 IN NS ns1-06.azure-dns.com.
moboysstate.org. 3599 IN NS ns2-06.azure-dns.net.
moboysstate.org. 3599 IN SOA edge1.azuredns-cloud.net. msnhst.microsoft.com. 42 900 300 604800 300
moboysstate.org. 59 IN MX 10 mail.moboysstate.org.
And all of our websites, including sub-domain websites, work just fine.
Help would be greatly appreciated!
