fixup smtp is only available on PIXes, not on standard Cisco routers,
certainly not in any version of IOS that I've ever run:

| less-than>en
| Password: 
| less-than#conf t
| Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
| less-than(config)#fixup proto smtp 25 
|                     ^
| % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
| 
| less-than(config)#^Z
| less-than#sho ver
| Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software 
| IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-IS56I-L), Version 12.1(20), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)


A quick bit of googling will show you that it's a PIX command, not a router
command...
