Could we have an option in an upcoming release, perhaps, to specify
which hostname to give as a parameter to HELO when talking to remote
machines, possibly by domain or by net?
My machine's primary hostname is 'esther.arkane.net', which is used
only on my internal network [1], and not outside - to the rest of the
world, this machine's arkane.demon.co.uk. However, this runs into the
problem that when I'm talking to a machine outside my local network
that verifies HELO, it can't find it and rejects any mail. This being
less than good...

[1] Yes, I know I should probably have used arkane.int or some such to
avoid name clashes, but I haven't had time to change it and it's
not really relevant to this problem.
