A problem just cropped up sending to AOL addresses.  This is the error
from their help page:

EXPLANATION:
One or more URLs in your message contain an IP address in place of a
domain name.

SOLUTION:
 Please make sure that all URLs in your message contain domain names and
not IP addresses. All <a href> tags must be entered as a domain name and
not an IP address.

This is the part of the header that contains the problem:

Return-path: <jed at shackman.com>
Received: from [64.136.243.221] (helo=[10.3.1.19])
	by mail.shackman.com with esmtps


If I am sending directly from the mail server, ie using mutt, the
message goes through just fine.  Does anyone know where to change an
exim configuration so the header contains the originating host name
instead of an ip address?

Thanks,
