Domino Server 6.0.2 CF2 iSeries


Domino gives its hostname when it connects to an external smtp server to deliver mail. It does this by opening the SMTP session with:

HELO host.domain.net

I got a problem with this because:
a. The RFC821 states that the name given should be the domain-name (HELO domain.net) not the host-name.
b. The internal hostname of our domino server differs from the internet internet-node-name (cable) from where smtp traffic orignates. I expect this will cause problems in the near future (due to SPAM control).

Question is how to change the name that is given in the (E)HELO command. I know I can change the SMTPGreeting, but this is for incomming SMTP traffic only (at least on iSeries).
I want to change the name that is given when our server connects to an external smtp server to deliver mail.
