You can reject the connection because the SMTP client's IP corresponds
to www.spammer.com. Perfectly legal by the RFC. The HELO/EHLO argument

I'm aware of that, but it's not what I'm asking about. I'm specifically
asking about using the EHLO identifier as a policy trigger. Under the
interpretations of the section as provided here, this is prohibited.
