Vcenter 6.5 U1 doesn't email . Mail sever receive null field RECEIVED: MAIL From:<> SIZE=2961"

[michele_distasi]

Hello guys. Can anyone help me on this problem? Is there anyone who has configured VCSA that sends mail through any mail relay?

I also tried to use IIS SMTP to see if it was a HMAILSERVER problem but the problem is the same: the other machines send mail to the office365 mail server ,while the virtualcenter fails.

I have read the logs from VirtualCenter: Var / mail / message:[ Note in the meantime I changed the name of the mail server in hmail.xxx.xx.it  ,ip is the same 10.122.6.189]  

Var / mail / message

At this point it seems almost certain that the problem is in the VirtualCenter. It is right that it is relay = localhost.localdom?

This is the IIS SMTP Log .

ln green the log of the sending machine is able to send the mail, in blue the one of the VirtualCenter.

Thanks in advance
