Anyone found a workaround for the issue that <http://www.dnsstuff.com's/>www.dnsstuff.com's mail testing section attempts?

"Mail server host name in greeting"

WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a host other than what it really is (the SMTP greeting should be a 3-digit code, followed by a space or a dash, then the host name). If your mailserver sends out E-mail using this domain in its EHLO or HELO, your E-mail might get blocked by anti-spam software. This is also a technical violation of <http://www.DNSstuff.com/pages/rfc821.htm>RFC821 4.3 (and <http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/rfc.ch?detail=2821>RFC2821 4.3.1). Note that the hostname given in the SMTP greeting should have an A record pointing back to the same server. Note that this one test may use a cached DNS record.

spamfilter.kencook.com claims to be invalid hostname '***************************************2*****200******2**0':
   220 ***************************************2*****200******2**0 *0*00

tell you PIX or whatever to quit messing with your SMTP protocol.
