Hmm. This sure looks like someone doesn't understand SMTP continuation  
lines here. The error message above looks like a bug in the SMTP client to  
me. '220-xxxx' means "this is a 220 reply, but there will possibly be more  
lines prefixed '220-', and the last line will be prefixed '220 '.

A 220 reply is what is expected on opening the connection. Then you answer  
HELO (or better EHLO), and should get a 250 reply.

I suspect a bug in berolist.
