Disable the 'fixup' (transparent streammunging) at the PIX:

However, be warned that this will disable the PIX firewall's capability to 
filter ESMTP commands. When fixup is enabled the PIX will only permit the 
basic SMTP commands specified in RFC 821 to reach your mail server. 
Anything else is answered by the PIX with the "500 command unrecognized 
message" to the client and then the PIX sends the server an altered SMTP 
packet with xxxx in place of the actual command. ESPTM (RFC 1869) is 
filtered because it may allow some fairly powerful commands to be executed 
on your mail server that are unecessary for typical internet email exhanges. 
Someone else may be able to elaborate on the risk of allowing ESMTP, but one 
example is the VRFY command which will tell the client whether a user 
account actually exists on the server and sometimes replies with the user's 
full name.
