Cisco Unity Express SMTP problem FQDN in EHLO

Ever had the problem, because of a sub-optimal DNS implementation, that your CUE doesn't want to use the FQN in EHLO? Your SMTP Server keeps sending "Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname"? Then you should try to set the CUE hostname via CLI. You could set it to something like "hostname CUE.lab.local". This doesn't work via GUI!!
