I have a strange problem with Exchange 2013.
I'm using an Wildcard certificate for ex-01.internal.company.nl, this is also the internal + external server name for this machine.
The Remote Connectivity Analyzer from Microsoft completes with only a warning that the trust MIGHT not be valid for older versions of windows if the 'update root certificates' is not enabled. So that should not cause any issues on Windows 7 or 8.
2 Clients have the same problem, causing them to be unable to SEND mail. No problems with Receiving the mails. Sending mail causes an error:
Task 'mailbox@company.nl - Sending' reported error (0x80040115) : 'We can't complete this because we can't contact the server right now. Please try again later.'
The auto discovery is all configured correctly and is working.
The problem can be solved on one client by fiddling with the "USE SSL" or not (from time to time you need to clear or recheck the SSL checkbox.)
On the Other PC, the only thing that seems to be working is to delete the Outlook profile, create a new one and it works.... for both the clients, the problems will re-occur the next day.
Some configuration data:

I'm completely out of ideas, nothing I found on the internet until now has proven to be a working solutions. (At least not a permanent solution.)
Maybe anybody has some new ideas which I forgot to check?
I did install CU6 a few months ago and the problem did not occur since.
So for those to who it might apply, install the latest update.
