Asking for clarification:
When authenticating the EHLO domain, is only a SRV query done or
does the SMTP server first do an A lookup on the domain name to see
if the resulting IP address matches the connection IP address?
It appears that the text implies that the SRV record will contain
the appropriate A record for the domain name (in the additional data
section), so an explicit A lookup is not needed (unless the SRV query
result fails to provide the necessary A record).
