You have a firewall with SMTP Proxy which cannot handle ESMTP commands.
Look this detail ..... when you telnet localhost, you can see the server
banner:
> 220 ogo.altkom.pl ESMTP

    But when you're outside your network, you'll see:
> 220 *******************

    Banners are different, which means someone is 'getting' or proxying your
smtp connection. And because of this banner (*********), we can assume that
we're dealing with a Cisco PIX firewall, which cant handle ESMTP well.

    Solution: disable SMTP Proxy capabilities on the Cisco PIX.

    Believe me, courier version has NOTHING to do with this problem.

    Sincerily,
