Helo command rejected

Hi,
some of our emails return with the following error message:
<[email protected]>:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xx does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 504 5.5.2 <h123xxxx>: Helo command rejected: need
fully-qualified hostname
Giving up on xxx.xxx.xxx.xx.

There is no fully-qualified hostname in /var/qmail/control/me but only the first part of the name (h123xxxx).
I inserted the full name h123xxxx.stratoserver.net and restarted qmail and the mails didn't bounce anymore.
How can I change this entry so Plesk would not overwrite it again.

The entry for hostname in plesk's server preferences was already set to the full name.

#hostname also returns only h123xxxx
 
Update:
Seems that the Server keeps the manual settings in /var/qmail/control/me
No Problem with outgoing mails after putting the full hostname in the 'me' file.

#hostname still delivers only the first part of the servername.
