I've dealt with quite a few SMTP server issues. If you have no trouble sending to other SMTP servers, try manually sending an email, note: it is key that you type line 2 exactly as is. Some servers try to perform DNS resolution on the privided hostname, I have found that this is the problem 75% of the time, when OTHER smtp servers work.
