Exchange 2007 not receiving email

I have an SBS 2008 server which runs Exchange 2007 SP3 UPdate Rollup 11.
Today I changed the subnet from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.202.x
I had to manually change 1 DNS entry and aslo the IP address for the exchange send and receive connectors.

I cannot receive email. Sending works fine but the receive fails.
I have event ID's 1017 and 1019.
The Fix my Network Wizard says "Exchange SMTP Connector is Invalid"
If I telnet to my mailserver on port 25, I get this: 421 4.3.2 Service not available, closing transmission channel
How do I find and correct this error?

Did you let the fix my network wizard do its thing?
You should really have changed the IP address using SBS, rather than manually. I would suggest that you run the connect to the internet wizard again, enter the new IP address and let SBS do its thing. There are a lot of settings "under the hood" that SBS will apply.

Yes, I followed the instuctions found in this link. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/55be2c21-5267-4bd2-bc88-9f23b1365e74/sbs-2011-changing-subnets 

It worked on everything properly except 1 DNS entry and the receive connector. After that , I restarted the router, the server and each Workstation. The Fix my network wizard still tells me that the connector is invalid.

I have the results for get-receiveconnector|fl if you want me to post them, just ask.
