What part of that aren't you understanding?  Have your SMTP server listening
on port 25, connect to port 25 on the server they've given, issue the command
'ETRN @synergistic.co.uk' (assuming that's the domain you're expecting to
receive mail for), close the connection.  The mailserver, if it has mail for
you, will now open a session to your SMTP daemon and deliver the mail.
