3. Connect again, then compare with another server

   Connect again. If the error is still there, try another server you trust to compare. Then report the exact protocol message and the MTA build you have installed. Do not change your account password or your serial to try to fix a protocol mismatch.

These are the steps of the guide Disconnected by an unknown protocol error.

Still not fixed? Copy the whole message, not only the code, and check your log in the Fix tool. It is read on your own computer.

About this code

MTA's own client shows a CC code when something fails before or during a connection: the address, the nickname, a module it could not load, or the connection itself. MTA's own documentation gives CC24 as Encryption/protocol mismatch.
