Re: SPF HELO checking

Hi !!

To answer the second question.  We don't *need* to use SPF to
authenticate HELO.  Having HELO be a FQN that resolves to the IP of the MTA
authenticates the MTA equally as well as an SPF record - as is recommended
practice.

This will be very nice in a perfect world, nowadays most mta's fail
this condition and is not practical to implement such this checking.
