[Mimedefang] Loosing battle with mail server :)

[McCartin, Dan]

I can not believe this machine is beating me, I'm thinking of becoming a
truck driver.

Anyway here is the problem:

No mater what command except helo you send the server while connected
via telnet to port 25 you get the following:

553 5.3.0 Connect:yourhost.domain.com

I am running RH7.2, sendmail 8.12.6, mimedefang 2.24, spamassasin 2.43.

Sendmail.mc as follows:

Nothing in the error logs to tell me what is going on.

Any help would be appreciated.
