I might indicate that someone has been running tests against
the mail server to determine which versions of protocols it supports.
If that's the case, there will probably be lots of failures in a
short timespan, unless the scan is scanning for a single thing across
many IP addresses.

Or it might indicate that the mail server refuses to support something
that an old client is trying to use (i.e., TLS 1.0 or 1.1).

But I'm not sure what "bad key" means specifically so I might be wrong.

cheers,
