Iang,

To probe against the IP address, the system should put it between 
brackets, like 
root@[10.0.0.1].
 Without the brackets, the mail system 
would return "501 5.1.3 Bad recipient address syntax".

I have an IP address, but my e-mail is not registred at whois. So I can 
probe just against the direct IP.

Regards,

Rafael
