[SOLVED] Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname; - NetworkExpertise - 03-14-2008 05:08 AM
Debian Etch -
Fresh Installation of ispCP
Every domain user when sending I see this error message in the log and their email gets rejected. I searched the forums for this error and found some responses in German, but I cannot read German. SMTP Outbound Auth is turned on in users Outlook 2003/2007. Here is my postfix -n:

This worked just fine when it was VHCS2. I decided to build a new box and switch over to ispCP and now I have SMTP send issues. Let me know what will fix this problem. Its a fresh load!

try this
instead of
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous, noplaintext
use
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
in main.cf.
This is the "outook hack"...

This did fix it as long as you set Outlook (all versions) to do SMTP Authentication and set "Use same settings as my incoming mail server"
Thanks Joximu. I would recommend to the package maintainers for ispCP to take this off on a default install as most US Hosting customers use Outlook products.

Outlook users must set following in Tools -> Account Settings -> ispCP_mail_account -> More settings (Advanced) :
1. Check - My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication
2. Choose - Use same settings as my incoming mail server
This working fine with all version of MS Outlook and the settings for Outlook Express is the same.
