receive email intermittently

[lokust]

I have recently had trouble receiving email and would like to find a quick solution
The following error message has been forwarded to me from several people attempting to send email to this particular domain:

--------------------------------------------------
An error was detected while processing a file of BSMTP input.
The error message was:

421 SMTP incoming data timeout - message abandoned

The SMTP transaction started in line 0.
The error was detected in line 3.
0 previous messages were successfully processed.
The rest of the batch was abandoned.
421 SMTP incoming data timeout - message abandoned
Transaction started in line 0

Error detected in line 3

My host tells me that "the error comes from the sending server not sending the correct EHLO package when attempting to send mail and that this interferes with Spamassassin."

I'm not 100% about this as I have 2 gmail accounts configured to forward email to my domain email and gmail reports "There is a problem with this email address. Mail is not being forwarded successfully"

Thanks for any help,
Al

Try sending an email to your account straight from gmail. Maybe the forward function of gmail has some flaws in it :s
