Greeting 220 *******(*)

[Nuno Simões Ferreira <nu...@mailtec.pt>]

Hi, 

 

I´ve installed a James Email Server (2.3.1) and the greeting is 220 ************... when doing telnet to the IP.

Other machine that have the James Email Server with the same config  does the greeting OK, with the name of the machine.

 

Any ideias on this, and what is wrong in the new installation of James?

 

Cheers, 

 

Nuno Ferreira

That's a CISCO firewall that plays a "man in the middle". It's called 
"SMTP fixup" and I suggest you disable it because it can give you 
trouble with some email servers. See for example
