That is some of the most useless diagnostics I've seen in a while -- kudos
to Microsoft for continuing to be worthless.
However, giving a (somewhat wild) guess, I would first see if Exchange is
actually stupid enough to use exchange.pcam.local as its HELO name in
the SMTP dialog. This is obviously not a valid DNS name and would trigger
a lot of spam systems to reject the email (mine, in particular, would)
