What'd be _really_ handy for those of us who run Exim on laptops which
are lugged around and plugged into a variety of different networks
would be a mechanism whereby Exim reverse-resolves the IP address
it's sending mail out on and uses that in HELO.

I think Sendmail does that, something I've always considered to be a
bit evil, but I can see the potential benefits in it now!
