Most likely, it complains because Hobbit fires off SMTP commands before

Try removing the "send" part from the [smtp] section in
~hobbit/server/etc/bb-services
That's working. But isn't that the same as just a port check ?
No. If you just remove the "send" bit, Hobbit will still use the
"expect" definition and check that the SMTP server sends back a
"220" OK-message that it is ready.
The only reason Hobbit sends the "MAIL\r\nQUIT\r\n" string is
because sendmail complains if you connect to it, but don't send
anything.
