Correct, but RCPT TO is not a synch point in pipelining, after DATA is,
though. There is nothing wrong with Christian's pipelining setup.

Wrong, it's a response to the MAIL FROM

This is the response to the RCPT TO

And this is the response to the data. They're not misleading. The
MAIL FROM was not properly processed, so to all intents and purposes
it's as if you were doing the transaction without having issued a
MAIL FROM in the first place.
The point here is that you're being rejected at the unqualified domain
name, not at the RCPT TO. The option you [Christian] were fiddling with,
helo_allow_chars is for incoming connections, wheras this is an outgoing
one.
I wouldn't accept that domain either:
| mbm@comma:~
| :; adnshost -t mx ns.
| ns does not exist
Also, since you [Christian] appear to be on a dialup/consumer DSL, you
probably ought to be using your ISP's smarthost rather than sending
direct.
