some of the mail my server sends get bounced..

Edit: Sorry about posting in the wrong section, No Idea how I managed it. This was meant for the main category, not the tutorials.



I get daily 10-20 bounced emails with the following error:

"550 sorry invalid HELO/EHLO greeting "


As far as I can figure out, this is because the the email is sent with a returnpath different from the specified "From" address in the email.

The emails is sent from the phpBB forums software, the return-path is set in the sendmail_path parameter of php.ini.

If I don't set the returnpath in php.ini, the returnpath defaults to "localhost", wich obviously doesn't work any better.

Is there a better or more prober way of setting the returnpath? Or anything else I might be doing wrong?

I would really prefer my server to send proper formatet emails.
