Hi, Really nobody out there having same problem and/or any suggestions? some more tests showed, that it seems to be dependant of the SMTP server i want to connect to (some others working well, but unfortunately I have to use the one causing this error....)
The smtp server which i have to connect to and which throws me "HELO command not conforming to RFC" error is "smtpmail.t-online.de". Perhaps anybody out there can recheck on this?
