RE: Message REJECTED due to incorrect configuration

[Monteleone-Haught Matt - Millville]

I just had a similar problem today.  Seems that "Snip.net" has turned up all
the UCE parameters and now requires a FQDN when issuing a helo command.  My
Trend Internet Virus Wall was not issuing a FQDN only its computer name.  I
just had to add my domain name under My computer>properties>network
identification>properties>more>primary DNS suffix of this computer.
