This will stop _A LOT_ more spam/virus traffic than SPF does. (it can drop
spam coming into your system by over 50%)

This is probably the place where the obligitory SPF is anti-forgery, not
anti-spam goes....
I wonder if one is going to check SPF, it might, as a general solution to
this problem, enable an overall simpler system config. Questions related
to regex problems for self HELO checking seem to come up ALL the time on
the Postfix mailing list.
