I have installed a Domino R6.5 server. Somehow that server doesn’t sent emails to some domains (e.g. web.de, audi.de or db.com)The message are like:
Failed to connect to SMTP host AUDI.DE because 221 2.0.0 mailgate.audi.de closing connection
Failed to connect to SMTP host WEB.DE because 221 mx23.web.de closing connection
Any Idea?

You need to record some debugging information to see exactly what’s happening
Notes.ini
SMTPDebugIO=1 (I think)

02/05/2004 11:35:39 AM Router: No messages transferred to WEB.DE (host mx-ha02.WEB.DE) via SMTP: SMTP Protocol Returned a Permanent Error
They don’t like my HELO 
Any idea?
Subject: RE: SMTP Protocol Returned a Permanent Error
EHLO and HELO require a domain name…check your server configuration.Howard
Subject: RE: SMTP Protocol Returned a Permanent Error
The hint was good.
I had a Domain name but no “Fully qualified Internet host name”
After changing that it has started to sent all emails.
Thanks for the help…
