Dear Dennis,

I have modified the hostname to look like the FQDN and it started working
fine. Thank you very much.

Regards,
Biju.

See the specification for the parameter "primary_hostname" in:

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-main_configurati
on.html

This problem can be seen in the latest message you sent to this mailing
list. The message contains the header line:

Received: from mail.rajagiritech.ac.in ([122.15.77.196]:42102 helo=mail) by
hummus.csx.cam.ac.uk with esmtps (TLSv1.2:AES128-GCM-SHA256:128) (Exim

It's the "helo=mail" that some sites will refuse. They expect to see
"helo=mail.rajagiritech.ac.in".
