Don't tell me. Its doing smtp fixup. Do tests from outside the
firewall. Admire the way the cisco craps all over the SMTP greeting,
and louses up the SMTP in general.
Then get a large iron bar and visit your cisco admin. Keep hitting him
until he takes off the smtp fixup. If he dies first use the iron bar on
the firewall.
It must be close on 20 years that cisco have been making ESMTP unusable.
