I tried it with the smtp server at my dialup isp.
I could type just random characters for "your-client-url"
and it said:
Hello po-202-x-x-x.izone.net.au [202.x.x.x],
pleased to meet you
so you see it determined the ip address (202.x.x.x) that my
isp assigned to me when I dialed in. This "HELO/EHLO" stage
may or may not be a problem for you.
Also, try typing "HELP" for a list of commands.
Anton.
