Well, _did_ you've verified that the connection is started at all?
I mean: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/302339/EN-US
"If you are connected to the Internet through MSN, the Microsoft Network,
and you attempt to send messages by using an account other than your MSN
e-mail account, you may receive an error message that is similar to the
following error message:
The connection to the server has failed. Account: '<account
name>',
Server: '<SMTP server name>', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure
(SSL): No,
Socket Error: 10051, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
Cause
This behavior can occur because MSN does not allow messages to be sent to
another Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server while you are
connected to their network."
- From that description I would first check if this error means the basic
TCP connection. No SSL stuff or something.

Actually, as Jerry already wrote, some other program may interfere, e.g.
an antivirus program that stalls the connection as soon as the connection
changes from text to binary after the STARTTLS command. That's what we
had problems with.
Did you checked the connection with wireshark / tcpdump on the server
side? What side sents the last packet, does one side terminates the
connection, ... ?
