I, for one, would be most grateful for the ability to turn off
enforce_sync for selected IPs. Over 80% of customer calls about mail
service that get referred to me (ie not settings/other luser issues) are
these new fangled fax/scan/print devices that seem to have really poorly
done embedded SMTP servers in them. They almost always either send an IP
(not IP-Literal) on HELo, and/or break the lockstep on SMTP. Now I know
it's not exim's problem that these are broken, but as they are the
cu$tomer$, it would be nice not to have to tell them to yell at Toshiba
about it.
