It's working the way it's supposed to. You are supposed to
submit your hostname after the ehlo command per the RFC:
220 mail.tellurian.net Tellurian Networks SMTP Server
v3.8p-7
ehlo cactus.tellurian.net
250-tellurian.com. Hello cactus.tellurian.net
(216.182.1.34)
250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN
250-ETRN
250-STARTTLS
250-X-ID 6d61696c3131313938373035333235
