How are you sending mail? Do you have a send connector pointing to a SMTP smart host? Do you have proper NAT-ing in place from your smart host to your Exchange 2013 server?

Mail is been pointed to a smart host - third party spam company's records
Will SzymkowskiSenior Solution ArchitectCommented:
From the Exchange 2013 server can you telnet to it and send a test email?

I'd check windows server firewall (turn off for testing), exchange services (all started?), smart host authentication (if the smart host requires it), perhaps verify with these sites and tools:

Server accepts a telenet command, I've not tried sending a mail via telnet

Rob - first thing I checked windows firewall has been disabled
DeepinInfrastructure Engineer Author Commented:
there was a firewall rule on the sonicwall to allow smtp traffic  from the old server only, changed to new server and its working now

Please accept the below comment as the solution as NAT-ing has been stated already in my first comment.

NAT-ing is the terminology for what you have done for correcting your issue.
