I had some issues with my Imail using an old string in it's HELO message. Rather than bother with finding the "correct" spot in the registry or wherever, I just put the string I wanted into the IMail Admin, SMTP, Advanced page. So, if you telnet to mail.visioncomm.net, mail.kitepilot.net, mail.bydanjohnson.com, and on and on and on, it ALWAYS replies "220 mail.visioncomm.net (IMail 8.13)", oops, I need to update that to 8.15<g>.

Actually, that's just the SMTP greeting -- IMail will *always* respond with the same SMTP greeting for a given IP (somehow, it isn't able to guess in advance which domains people will be sending mail to).


The CBL "issue" is that when IMail connects to another mailserver to send outgoing mail, it may use different HELO/EHLO domains, depending on what domain the E-mail is being sent from. I don't believe there is any way around this. Of course, CBL is blowing a whole bunch of smoke with this, making unsubstantiated claims, so it isn't worth worrying about (unless, perhaps, if you are listed in CBL or block mail that is listed in CBL).
