maybe your firewall is playing bad esmtp games.
you can test with telnet:
$ telnet psg.com 25
...
220 psg.com ESMTP Exim 4.69 Wed, 27 Aug 2008 17:12:06 +0000
EHLO your.hostname.example

Coud it be the case:
--- cut here ---
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ocl]# telnet psg.com 25
Trying 147.28.0.62...
Connected to psg.com (147.28.0.62).
Escape character is '^]'.
220 psg.com ESMTP Exim 4.69 Wed, 27 Aug 2008 19:05:45 +0000
as you can see, psg.com says "ESMTP" which indicates that it speaks ESMTP.
EHLO salsa.gih.co.uk
500 unrecognized command
but firewall or proxy doesn't. old code, old behaviour. The error in
your previous dump was an indication ("unrecognized command"). psg.com
exim server would have said "STARTTLS command used when not advertised".
check your docs on how to disable smtp filtering in your firewall (look
for somthing like "no ip inspect name yourrulename smtp"...).
HELO salsa.gih.co.uk
