OS - Win2K Server
JVM - 1.3.x
James - 2.1.3



Some of the outbound email gets rejected with the following error message
Remote mail server told me: 504 <abcNT1>: Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname


Here it is in full detail from the remote server
mfive postfix/smtpd[21086]: 3CA1881B988: reject: RCPT from abcNT1.mn.uswest.net[xx.yy.zz.ww]: 504 <abcnt1>: Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname; from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> proto=SMTP helo=<fipnt1>


I don't know where the server is picking up my local machine name abcNT1
The server config is set up as follows:

<servernames autodetect='"false" autodetectIP="true">
  <servername> mydomain1.com </servername>
  <servername> mydomain2.com </servername>
</servernames>

I have tried taking out "mydomain1.com" and replaced it with the IP address of my server
but that seems to make no difference


If I telnet to my server at port 25, the banner comes up as
220 abcNT1 SMTP Server (JAMES SMTP Server 2.1.3) ready ..


Secondly, for outbound emails if the sender is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
will the remote mail server see the HELO domain as mydomain2.com or mydomain1.com or something else.



(I'll switch to the latest JAMES version as soon as its marked as released - I promise )
