E-mails from forms randomly disappearing (The SMTP server has unexpectedly disconnected)

Vote:
 

Hi!

We have some sites running CMS 11 and one site running CMS 12 (all on-premise). All sites are using Optimizely Forms and its built in function allowing form posts to be sent with e-mail.

However, we're now struggling with a problem where some e-mails randomly disappear.

In our log files we've found the following:

Failed to send email
System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. (The SMTP server has unexpectedly disconnected.)
 ---> MailKit.Net.Smtp.SmtpProtocolException: The SMTP server has unexpectedly disconnected.
   at MailKit.Net.Smtp.SmtpStream.ReadAheadAsync(Boolean doAsync, CancellationToken cancellationToken)

   at EPiServer.Forms.Implementation.Actors.SendEmailAfterSubmissionActor.<>c__DisplayClass13_0.<SendMessage>b__2()

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem?

Is there some way to extend the logging so that we can get more information?

Appreciate all the help we can get :-)

What SMTP client are you using to send emails? When you say emails randomly disappear - do you mean they aren't getting sent because of the above error?

Can you find a pattern in what emails are not being sent/disappear?

We've contacted the suppliers of our mail software and hope they'll be able to give us some assistance.
