unable to connect with ActiveSync Client on Sophos v 18.0 MR 4

Hello Community,

i have a weird issue while trying to connect to Exchange (2013) with some mobile devices (android and iOS). When i take a look at the webfiltering everything seems fine:

I have a lot of devices that can connect flawless while new created devices don´t connect to ActiveSync at all. There seems to be no difference in the logs with systems that can and cannot connect:

I can see no difference in these two logentries, but in the second case the user gets no mail nor can he send one.

Exchange Active Sync Checker (https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/) shows everythink is setup well.

How can i find out what is going on?

Thanks for any hints.
