Here's your answer. This means that the SMTP server that you
use as a relay is poorly configured. There is a FAQ entry:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/misc.html#FREEBSD-MAIL-BOUNCES
Looks like the 4th bullet point applies here. Whoever admins
that mail server needs to fix the config so it uses a real
host/domain name in the HELO command, not "popimap02.icare.priv"
You shouldn't be dumping mails based on the contents of HELO though, should
you?
If I understand correctly, it's not the content of HELO per se,
it is the fact that the contents of HELO could not be resolved
to an IP address.
That's relatively lightweight ... for example, if you connect to
an AOL MX server (although who really cares to? :-D), you're
refused if they can't resolve HELO to a PTR record ....
