Cause
The Notification Server didn't have access to www.solutionsam.com and there too was a HTTP to HTTPS redirect using URL Rewrite.
Environment
Release: ITMS 8.5 RU4
Resolution
Fixed by enabling internet access to www.solutionsam.com and disabling the IIS HTTP to HTTPS redirect using URL Rewrite.
