The correct syntax is: "MAIL FROM:<address>" without the SPACE between
"MAIL FROM:" and the address. More importantly <userba.re.IP.address>
is illegal. The preferred syntax is userdom.ain or failing that, you can
use <user[IP.address.domain.literal]>. You must put the IP address in [].

If my response solves your problem, the best way to thank me is to not
send an "it worked, thanks" follow-up. If you must respond, please put
"It worked, thanks" in the "Subject" so I can delete these quickly.
