Subject: [EXIM] Clarification on sender_host_reject_recipients
I turned this on last week and am seeing a number of the following

1997-12-02 11:42:26 recipients from [194.239.250.10] refused (host)
1997-12-02 11:42:30 Cannot verify HELO for host 194.239.250.10

I assume that failure to find a DNS entry and thus match my current host
list is a failure in itself (?). This is the only way I can see that it's
failed since it's not a (nets) failure.

If this is the case, I'll stop this and try another way. This is only
being used for people like UUnet with huge number of PoPs that don't seem
to be easy to block via nets (although I'll be happy to be shown
otherwise).

The HELO failure is a soft fail since this is version 1.73.

Thanks
