Strange behaviour after R80.20 upgrade

Ever since upgrading our Checkpoints to R80.20 (from R80.10) we are having some issues with receiving mail from certain sources (which so far seems to be Microsoft).

For instance if I try the following test:

https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/

I get:

Attempting to resolve the host name X in DNS.

       -The host name resolved successfully.

Testing TCP port 25 on host X to ensure it's listening and open. 

       -The port was opened successfully. 

 Analyzing SMTP Capabilities for server X:25

      -SMTP Capabilities were analyzed successfuly.


                250-X
                250-PIPELINING
                250-SIZE 26214400
                250-ETRN
                250-STARTTLS
                250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
                250-8BITMIME
                250 DSN

Attempting to send a test email message to X@X using MX X.

                -Delivery of the test email message failed

The server returned status code -1 - Failure sending mail.

Microsoft seem to be the only connections coming in with the ECN,CWR flags set.

 

If we trace the external Interface we can see SYN,ECN,CWR packets come in from Microsoft:

10:28:46.056526 IP mail-oln040092068072.outbound.protection.outlook.com.52849 > x.x.x.x.smtp: SWE 3702938783:3702938783(0) win 8192

If we trace the internal interface we see a RST packet going to the Load Balancer:

10:02:52.605181 IP mail-oln040092066014.outbound.protection.outlook.com.24619 > x.x.x.x.smtp: R 3928789066:3928789066(0) ack 0 win 0

 

We do not have MTA setup

Any ideas?

I have but awaiting a response.

Figured I would post on here in case anyone else has experienced similar issues or has any suggestions on where to look.

Did you ever figure anything out relating to this ? I keep getting issues with misc connections, and the CWR ECE keeps popping up in my Wireshark.. allways related to Azure.
