how about protocol log instad of HUP

Same here…

Easiest way to test this is to just send email from one organization to another from Outlook. If you get the message with green check mark, you are all set. If not, then you’ll need some troubleshooting. You can enable protocol logging by executing :

Set-ReceiveConnector Internet -ProtocolLoggingLevel Verbose, and

Set-SendConnector Internet -ProtocolLoggingLevel Verbose

to verify TLS channel. If message doesn’t arrive to recipient but doesn’t come back as NDR, you should check queue.

I think HUB is actually correct from the following URL: technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997624(v=exchg.150).aspx which lists the following:

Receive connector protocol log files for the Transport service on Mailbox servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Hub\ProtocolLog\SmtpReceive

Receive connector protocol log files for the Mailbox Transport service on Mailbox servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Mailbox\ProtocolLog\SmtpReceive

Receive connector protocol log files for the Front End Transport service on Client Access servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\FrontEnd\ProtocolLog\SmtpReceive

Send connector protocol log files for the Transport service on Mailbox servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Hub\ProtocolLog\SmtpSend

Send connector protocol log files for the Mailbox Transport service on Mailbox servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Mailbox\ProtocolLog\SmtpSend

Send connector protocol log files for the Front End Transport service on Client Access servers %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\FrontEnd\ProtocolLog\SmtpSend

This is a very tricky question.. although the folder for send and receive connector logs is indeed “Protocol Log”. The file path for those logs is

C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\TransportRoles\Logs\HUB\ProtocolLog

The file path “C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\TransportRoles\Logs\ProtocolLog” is for HTTP Client logs

“The transport component on the sender Mailbox server initiates a mutual TLS session with the transport component on the target Mailbox server by exchanging and verifying their certificates.”
Talking Transport Components – it sounds like HUB-to-HUB communication. So logs should be under HUB folder.
