Are you sending mail through a local SMTP proxy/firewall?
My Postfix box talks to this site without trouble.
Here is the logging from:
# postconf -e debug_peer_list=203.200.217.129
# postfix reload
$ sendmail -bv postmas...@bhelrnd.co.in

After the server replies to EHLO with "502", the Postfix SMTP client
then sends HELO instead and the SMTP session proceeds as expected.
