Is this the HELO rejection? 1.82 introduced some syntax checking in HELO
lines. Unfortunately, it seems that many M*cr*S*ft systems include
underscores in their system names, which is illegal.

If you want to change the test, alter line 1114 in src/smtp_in.c. It
reads

        if (!isalnum((uschar)*s) && *s != '.' && *s != '-')


and is the test for an illegal character. If it is underscores that are
your problem, change it to

        if (!isalnum((uschar)*s) && *s != '.' && *s != '-' && *s != '_')


I will be adding some configuration option to the next release.
