That error is what you get when your EHLO or HELO host name is messed up. There was a bug (fixed now in 4.0) where it would send
EHLO AOLServer yourserver.com

rather than simply "EHLO yourserver.com". The fix is in aolserver/tcl/ns_sendmail.tcl and you can see it in CVS at aolserver.

In case you're using sendmail, and you'd rather change your sendmail configuration than mock with AOLserver, here's the line that you'll need to add to your sendmail.mc file on Red Hat Linux 8.0:

define(`confALLOW_BOGUS_HELO',`True')dnl
