My problem solved by adding an A record of edge server name (edg) in the forest primary domain dns server which its suffix also is my SMTP domain and the certificate for smtp in edge server is issued to edg.domain.com .As the mailbox server is located in a child domain (mailbox.child.domain.com) rather than forest primary domain (domain.com) it could not resolve edge.domain.com. Actually we need A record of edg in both domain.com and child.domain.com
