If the DNS name you're connecting to externally (eg mail.x.com) is not one of the names on the SSL cert configured for Exchange (andr for ISA/TMG if thats how you're publishing Exchange) then you'll see that error.
Exchange installs with a self-signed SSL cert but you need to replace that with a proper SAN cert for external access scenarios like this, or you face a nightmare of configuration and support issues.
Here is some guidance for setting up an SSL certificate for Exchange 2010.
