Hi Philip.

Your domain name does not match the public IP address you are using. Your
mx records points to mail.pricom.com.au & your mail transfer agent is
advertising as pricom.com.au . RFC 2821 is clear, that the domain name
should be that of the sending system, and should be a fully qualified name
known in DNS. If such a name is unavailable, a domain literal should be
used, again for the sending system.


220 pricom.com.au ESMTP
ehlo nhongo.com
250-pricom.com.au
250-PIPELINING
250-8BITMIME
250-SIZE 0
250 AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
421 Timeout. Talk faster next time.


Connection to host lost.
