I successfully installed iredmail on a clean spunup server (digital ocean droplet) using sogo as my UI. I can both send and receive emails perfectly. I have another droplet used for my wordpress sites and on one of those sites I have a contact form (used for a contact us page) via contact form 7 plugin. I have the plugin set to send it's emails to an email address on my iredmail server, but when I send the data from the contact from it never reaches my inbox.

I took a look at the logs and I noticed I'm getting a "Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname" and the "FROM" is from www-data@(name of my server)

is there a way to make iredmail accept all mail coming from that server so it can handle them normally (inbox or junk). basically a way to bypass iredmail settings/restrictions just for emails coming that server?

Please senable SMTP authentication and secure connection (STARTTLS) in your Wordpress smtp plugin.
