You replaced "250 dc Ok." by "250-dc Ok." manually? Why?

So, you could try to do this.

That may be because your IDENT-lookup is still enabled and the remote client 
does not offer an ident server. Try switching it off (extend TCPDOPTS 
by -noidentlookup).


To get valuable assistance, please use
- correct host names. If your server shall be on the internet, please use 
internet hostnames. Neither "domain" nor "dc" is a FQDN and therefore should 
not be used in the internet. "hostname -f" should give you a full host name, 
containing the name of the machine and the domain it lives in. If that's not 
the case, you should configure your machine's hostname according to your 
operating system's docs.
- ESMTP. If Courier complains about an ESMTP command error, this may be true.
- as much from the default configuration as possible. If everything works, 
customize bit by bit and you could keep in mind what worked and what did not. 
If you customize a lot of stuff, there are many places where you could have 
made a mistake or where things could get mixed up.
