Hi<br />
<br />
I have a web server that is part of a &quot;workgroup&quot;. It has the server name of &quot;dell-1&quot;. I am using Windows Server 2003.<br />
<br />
However, when it sends out bulk emails via our software, some people don't receive our emails because they are blocked. They are blocked because:<br />
<br />
-------<br />
Emails are being blocked based on bogus HELO name used by the sending server.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, this check that our gateways perform is universal and exceptions cannot be configured.<br />
<br />
The HELO name used by the school server is &quot;dell-1&quot; and it does not comply with RFC 821 which clearly states that the HELO name should be a FQDN of a sending host.<br />
-------<br />
<br />
How can I change my servers settings or SMTPs details in IIS so that this doesn't happen?<br />
<br />
Does anyone know what &quot;Primary DNS suffix of this computer:&quot; means/does? Is it related? It can be found at: in Control Panel / System / Computer Name tab / Change... / More...<br />

Emails are being blocked based on bogus HELO name used by the sending server

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
