Could you elaborate on this? I use PIX firewalls all over the place and don't seem to have a problem with SMTP or ESMTP.
Check whether "smtp fixup" is enabled - and if it is, disable it using
# no fixup protocol smtp 25
Test the results (from an outside host, using netcat / telnet to port 25) to see for yourself.
Briefly, a pix doing "smtp fixup" -
* Munges the smtp banner entirely with ***** (that breaks an rfc or two)
* Disables ESMTP (so EHLO will not be accepted)
* Munges several replies returned by the mailserver, turning them to XXX
