Give the ip blocks in CIDR format (ip/32, ip block /24 etc). And disable host
lookup for those IP blocks.

Then suppose the ip is 192.168.1.1 (ya, I know it is rfc 1918 space <g>) in
the host_lookup option, give

host_lookup = !192.168.1.1:0.0.0.0/0

That will verify hosts for all ip's except 192.168.1.1

Dont check the hostname there - and don't relay for hostnames - relay for
specific ips or ip blocks.

You got it - but put the !1.2.3.0/24 _before_ the 0.0.0.0/0 - which is applied
first so that your exception is ignored ;)
