<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-GB">It's dangerous because some mail servers may mark this mail as spam. This was the case with one of our EPrints servers. Almost every mail sent out via this EPrints server has been marked as spam by googlemail. Sending
mail via NET::SMTP needs a HELLO message otherwise localhost.localdomain is used as the fully qualified domain name.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-GB">As a quick and dirty workaround we changed the behavior of EPrints::Utils::send_mail_via_smtp (line 160), from<o:p></o:p></span></p>
