Sorry for quoating, but how does one set_allow_chars so Exchange works with
Exim.
My problem is outlined below

2002-10-16 16:48:35 rejected EHLO from [209.167.74.242]: syntactically
invalid argument(s): cme_nt1.cmetele.com
2002-10-16 16:48:35 rejected HELO from [209.167.74.242]: syntactically
invalid argument(s): cme_nt1.cmetele.com

[Exim] Syntactically invalid hostname

1. Run Exim 4.02 or later.
2. Set helo_allow_chars.
