YIKES!!  I apologize for my last message.  I wasn't paying attention.  Sorry.


The above error looks awkward though.  It looks like when you issued the 
EHLO command you didn't issue a remote domain.  The server issued a 
501.  Then you tried vrfy'ing the user but you technically aren't able to 
give the server commands yet.  This may be why you are getting an error.
