Ooh ! That looks like it's behind a Pix with the smtp_fixup turned on. It breaks
a lot of stuff. For a start, it doesn't support ehlo but only helo, so no
enhanced smtp commands are available - so you can't use STARTTLS. You could
contact the people at the remote site and ask them to consider turning off the
smtp fiuxup on the Pix.
