Disabling EHLO reporting does not disable the AUTH function itself. If an MUA (custom or otherwise) sends AUTH creds, they will be honored: > 220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server mail3.oldmanmurray.com (IMail 7.06 23545-6) > ehlo > 250-mail3.oldmanmurray.com says hello > 250-SIZE 0 > 250-8BITMIME > 250-DSN > 250-ETRN > 250 EXPN > auth login > 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 The only way to disable this is at the firewall level. Remember, I never questioned that you are getting sc***ed by an overzealous blacklist.
