If you can make the second part work (sender's domain points back to the 
sending IP), I'd be happy to incorporate it as an option to the main 
code base.  I'm not sure I'd care about what the HELO string says, 
though.  If it's a botnet sender, it could fake the HELO string.  But if 
the sender's domain really does resolve back to that host, that's a very 
good indication that we've got a real mail server sitting on a bad IP addr.
