sender_verify_hosts and sender_verify_hosts_callback are separate.

Of course, you should really fix all the Imail servers in your possession,
but if you're faced to a remote one where the admins refuse to deal with it,
or cannot even comprehend the problem, you could set that host in
sender_verify_hosts_callback or sender_verify_callback_domains depending on
whether the host is talking to you or you are rejecting Emails because the
envelope from is pointing to that host.
