Re: EHLO EHLO EHLO, what's going on here then ?

Thanks for that Andy.

I had already set the domain in there, but I've added the mail. prefix which
probably should have been there to start with (abc.com would have resolved
against our web server, mail.abc.com will resolve against our mail server).

Hi,

Can someone please tell me how to control what FQDN exchange uses when
negotiating a connection with a remote SMTP server ?

I'm getting a error on some servers reporting the client IP doesn't match
the domain.

If I telnet to their mail server and manually enter "EHLO abc.com" then
"MAIL FROM : dcompton@xxxxxxx" it'll accept it.

I've concluded that our Exchange 2003 server isn't putting the correct
FQDN
after the EHLO command.

I'm sure it's really simple to set up, but I can't seem to find any
parameter or setting that defines what it reports.
It's probably sticking something in like "EHLO server.domain.local" ?

Any ideas ?

Cheers,

Dave.



SMTP Virtual Server/Delivery/Advanced tab.
Enter the FQDN there.
