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.
