It's my experience that those implementing such checking seldom provide useful 
diagnostic messages.  For the record, your message is very different than the 
original one posted.  My advice to contact the postmaster stands.

What about this one then?


The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

            The e-mail system was unable to deliver the message, but did not 
report a specific reason.  Check the address and try again.  If it still fails, 
contact your system administrator.

It does not look like a DNS lookup problem, more it is trying to check if I am 
a valid user.

210.55.18.178 is my firewall that relays the in/out email

For the record we do not have a PTR for this IP, but this error does not appear 
to indicate that problem?

Cheers

You should begin every post and subject line with "Friggin' Lyris" and you 
won't have any problems.

Contact the correspondent's postmaster to try to find out what kind of 
filtering they're doing.  The message you've received indicates that they might 
be doing some thing like reverse DNS checking.  Do you have a proper PTR record 
for your domain?

Subject: can't send to a company

Exchange 200 server

We are having trouble delivering to two different companies.  The error I am 
getting is:

<mmc-mail #5.5.0 smtp;504 <mmc-mail>: Helo command
rejected: need fully-qualified hostname>

Yet, we have no problem delivering, for example the Exchange Discussion list, 
and almost everybody else.  

I assume this is an attempt by these companies at spam control but I don't know 
the solution to the problem.

Our DNS is hosted by our ISP.

Can someone suggest a simple or even not-so-simple solution to my dilemma?  

PS Boy, that Lyris sure is stringent about subject lines.  It rejected 2 of my 
posts due to the subject line.
