Thanks Peter. I looked that up and also googled on it to get some
examples
I ended up putting the following in my RCPT acl
accept hosts = 166.70.252.252 : woodhall.shire.net
control = no_enforce_sync
But I still get the
2005-11-25 02:59:55 SMTP protocol violation: synchronization error
(input sent without waiting for greeting): rejected connection from H=
[166.70.252.252] input="helo woodhall\r\n"
in my logs. The vendor's test SMTP server does not enforce the sync
(is not exim) so he has no problems with the system sending email...
So it appears I do not have the incantation correct.
Thanks for the pointers and any updated pointers :-)
best
Chad
