One thing that bit us a couple of years
ago was checking for strict domain
format compliance. Some Exchange boxes
will include a "_" in their HELO's. I
think it's because Exchange uses the
Windows computer name in a HELO. Under-
scores are perfectly legal characters for
Windows host names but not for DNS
domains. So we add:

helo_allow_chars = _

to allow connections from those folks.
