After the DATA command you should enter the header fields in RCF??? format, 
followed by a empty line, followed by the actual data. For instance:

mail from: yoda at isr.ist.utl.pt
250 2.1.0 yoda at isr.ist.utl.pt... Sender ok
rcpt to: yoda at isr.ist.utl.pt
250 2.1.5 yoda at isr.ist.utl.pt... Recipient ok
data
354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
Subject: test

hi there
.
250 2.0.0 k6LE4oXP028311 Message accepted for delivery

Cheers,

Rodrigo
