OK, thanks that worked, I get the message
250 2.6.0 <SRC-ROOT-DC02zFD4LX000023
Now I am not receiving my test email, this means that I should take a look at the configuration of the SMTP server?

Check the mail log... and the mail queue....
SMTP is for mail sending, POP or IMAP is for receiving.
To tell the mail server that you have completed the message enter a single "." on a line on it's own.
The mail server should reply with:
10.20.178.114???????? Message accepted for delivery
You can close the connection by issuing the QUIT command.
The mailserver should reply with something like:
221 2.0.0 mail.domain.ext closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.
