Subject: [exim-dev] Verify sender callout uses wrong HELO data
When Exim 4.63 performs a verify sender callout, it picks up the interface
and port from the SMTP transport (calling code in smtp_out.c), however
it uses smtp_active_hostname for HELO data instead of picking up the
transport's helo_data. Some remote mailservers notice that the HELO
data hostname doesn't match the connecting interface.

The suspect code is in verify.c lines 413 through 476.
