To anyone that was interested the errors seem to be because the ISP doesnt
know what the hell they are running. I asked them whether they were running
a traffic shaper or a load balancing device and they said "Duh" then said "o
no we dont have anything like that." I then used my personal dialup to a
reputable ISP and suddenly the problems went away. It seems if Qmail smtp
doesn't have a smooth reliable data stream it doesn't like it. I assume this
would be the case for any SMTP connection but I've never had the problem
with Groupwise or Lotus Notes. Thanks to Caspar for pointing me to the
correct RFC. I was wondering if anyone knows where the rest of the SMTP
commands that aren't in the original RFC are listed.
