Shouldn't you accept address verification before denying based on EHLO ?

I think receiving MTAs should be held to a lower standard than
sending MTAs regarding EHLO checks.

My rules are below.

FYI - I have found that Greylisting has dramatically lowered my
spam volume, without having to receive or scan the message.

My false positives have mostly been around EHLO checks.

Cheers,     Andy!
