The first line of the response to EHLO should be a "greeting", not an
option announcement. Here's the syntax from RFC 2822:
ehlo-ok-rsp = ( "250" domain [ SP ehlo-greet ] CRLF )
/ ( "250-" domain [ SP ehlo-greet ] CRLF
*( "250-" ehlo-line CRLF )
"250" SP ehlo-line CRLF )

Something wrong there. There should be a response after MAIL FROM, since
you have not advertised PIPELINING.
