True, but I'd like to match the reverse DNS and not the HELO, the SMTP
sender, or the Envelope Sender. Makes it harder to supplant
.blableble.com since you'd have to have control of the PTR record for
your IP.
This I'd like to do mostly for e-mail coming from blackberries and such
that use someone else's server. SPF is already set up this way, but I'd
like to take it one step further.
