I am following through on the above two suggestions and would like to
request for comments. I have written the following rule to use in my
RCPT acl, following Suresh's 1st advise..

deny    message       = OUTBLAZE forgery. Go away! This is not from outblaze address
        !hosts        = 205.158.62.0/24 : 202.86.166.0/24 : 210.177.227.128/28 : 203.86.162.161/28
        condition     = ${if and { \
                         {eq {$sender_helo_name}{outblaze.com}}\
                         {match {$h_Received:}{.*mr.outblaze.com}} \
                         }\
                         {yes}{no}}
        log_message  = OUTBLAZE FORGERY: HELO from $sender_helo_name with ($sender_host_name)



I am mostly worried about the condition, esp the $h_Received part ;)



        cheers
