You could build your own acl (a hostlist is nothing without an acl
after all) to do that.
First have the client host be properly configured (that is identify
itself as HELO host.dyndns.org, then accept if the HELO argument is
in your list of allowed hosts *AND* its A record (dnslookup)
corresponds to the IP address of the connected host.
Or have it authenticate.
Perhaps there's a simpler way.
