I'm really reluctant to answer back for MP, but: So what? There is
nothing saying it has to be this way. The only guarantee for the HELO
host name is that it exists (which you can check) and belongs to the
client host (which you cannot check, for 'check' being anything better
than 'guess'). And if you look closely, the EHLO name resolves to just
the client's source IP address, which is not even necessary for
compliance, but should really be sufficient if you have such tests.
