When SMTP servers answer port 25, they are supposed to respond with "220 " followed by
the official name of the server. That's what RFC822 says. IMail, however, responds
with "X1" where the server name should be. This is technically a violation of the
RFCs (unless they have been updated in another RFC, which is possible), although I
can't imagine it would cause any problems.
