M:S:Q does _not_ perform an independent HELO check -- it never did and

If it's documented it's at least no bug.  Ignoring a SHOULD needs a good
excuse.  The opposition tries weird things like HELO smtp.xyzzy.claranet.
de, a HELO check would catch that.

I know, I know. :-(  This is sort of a design limitation of M:S:Q.  Other, 
non-legacy libraries (including Mail::SPF) should allow for the separate 
checking of HELO and MAIL FROM identities.
