Hello,
we just noticed that our Pix 515 with OS 7.1.1 translates SMTP startup banners into asterisks. E.g.:
router0>telnet mailin-02.mx.aol.com 25 Translating "mailin-02.mx.aol.com"...domain server (192.129.30.4) [OK] Trying mailin-02.mx.aol.com (205.188.155.89, 25)... Open
220-rly-yb02.mx.aol.com ESMTP mail_relay_in-yb2.1; Fri, 23 Jun 2006 15:47:09-04
00 220-America Online (AOL) and its affiliated companies do not 220- authorize the use of its proprietary computers and computer 220- networks to accept, transmit, or distribute unsolicited bulk 220- e-mail sent from the internet. Effective immediately: AOL 220- may no longer accept connections from IP addresses which 220 have no reverse-DNS (PTR record) assigned.Now from a host behind the Pix:
Trying... Connected to MAILIN-02.MX.AOL.COM.
220-**************************************************************************** ** 220-******************************************************** 220-**************************************************************** 220-***************************************************************** 220-***************************************************************** 220-************************************************************** 220 ***********************************************What does this mean? Bug or feature? Can it be disabled?
Even worse: V7.2.1 of the Pix software has a bug so that the last "220 " is missing.
