A) In IIS manager, SMTP Virtual Server > Properties > Delievery > Outbound Connections. The option for Limit number of connections must NOT BE 0.Unchecked the 0 option and restart the SMTP server.
OR maybe just hung. So
B) Restart the 'Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)' service
OR
C) just make IISRESET and fixed
Make the above and if not fixed ti may be DNS problem or something more sophisticate. If problem exist I will send you more details

Enable logging on SMTP to determine what is going on.
SMTP is under the iis iis management console 6.0
Set detailed logs and check what happens when it tries to send.

Walk me through your setup a little more. Is a device on your network trying to relay email off your 2012 server? Are you sending email directly to the internet from your server or are you using a smarthost? I've used this guide in the past successfully, ensure you follow each step carefully:
Increase the detail recorded in the log.
prior comments listed the various things to look for.
From the log entry you posted, it only reflects an email your server accepted.
