Thanks Ludolf and Dmitry for replying. 
@Ludolf, I know what an IP adress is. It's just that it's not allowed by the host to connect on their IP. 
@Dmitry, I tried putting the SNI settings in the config file, but it didn't resolve our problem. 
This is whats in our stunnel log file: 
2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Service [ SERVICENAME ] accepted connection from 'INTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: s_connect: connected 'EXTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Service [ SERVICENAME  ] connected remote server from 'INTERNAL-IP:PORT'2015.01.21 09:30:00 LOG5[4684]: Connection closed: 251 byte(s) sent to SSL, 188 byte(s) sent to socket
The response from the host is: "403 Forbidden</h1> Request forbidden by administrative rules."
Their support states it's because we are connecting to 'EXTERNAL-IP:PORT' and not 'SOMETHING.HOST.COM' .
Thanks again,
Colin
