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.
