Subject: PCPINE sends invalid HELO?

I've got a strange configuration problem with PC Pine, or I've found
a bug in it's SMTP exchange.

Here are the symptoms:

PC Pine won't send mail although Windows Pine does.  The configurations
are identical as far as I can tell.

I see from the packets flying by that WinPine does a dns lookup and
connects to our mail-hub white.lambton.on.ca (aka lambton.on.ca)
with a HELO pcwhatever.lambton.on.ca and there is goodness and light.

Dumb ol' PC Pine just says HELO lambton.on.ca to which white exclaims:

HELO lambton.on.ca
553 Local configuration error, hostname not recognized as local

Is this a known bug in PC Pine or do I have something set up wrong?
