Now, maybe I'm blind, but I don't see that requirement in RFC 2821 or
5321. And Postfix's SMTP client's default behaviour is:

$ postconf -d smtp_always_send_ehlo mail_version
smtp_always_send_ehlo = yes
mail_version = 2.5.5

I think an initial greeting of

220 fully.qualified.hostname

is pretty common this days - especially with so called "anti spam,
anti malware" appliances.
