Acabo de darme cuenta de que algunas de las operaciones de correo electrónico en mi código han fallado y estoy intentando solucionarlo, sin embargo, sigo recibiendo el siguiente error:

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: Failure sending mail. ---> System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
 ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

   at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(MailMessage message)
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
   at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(MailMessage message)

Mi código es bastante sencillo:

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
mail.To.Add(email_to);
mail.From = new MailAddress(email_from);
mail.Subject = email_subject;
mail.Body = email_body;


var client = new SmtpClient(smtp_server_url);
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username, password, domain);
client.Timeout = 30000;
client.Send(mail);

¿Alguien tiene alguna idea de lo que podría estar pasando? Nuestro administrador del servidor de intercambio dice que no puede ver nada en el registro.

Además, no es una sorpresa, pero sucede lo mismo cuando intento enviar un mensaje desde powershell.
