Relating to the new toaster I set up, I've noticed some odd behavior with
the banner when you connect to SMTP. Also, commands seem to be somewhat
limited on remote connections. For example...

Local Test:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] squirrelmail]# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.thebraingarden.com ESMTP
EHLO thebraingarden.com
250-mail.thebraingarden.com
250-STARTTLS
250-PIPELINING
250-8BITMIME
250 AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
QUIT
221 mail.thebraingarden.com
Connection closed by foreign host.


All very normal, and very well behaved. (And no, it's not an open relay
unless you're localhost. ;)

Now... Remote Test:

arsenic ~ # telnet mail.thebraingarden.com 25
Trying 209.90.91.5...
Connected to user-5.pl107658.fiber.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 *****************************
EHLO kydance.net

MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok
QUIT
221 mail.thebraingarden.com
Connection closed by foreign host.


Does this seem odd to anyone else? It behaves /totally/ differently on the
external connection than it does on the internal.
