This was perhaps vague. I meant the 2nd option. I wish to check that
an IP (pulled out from Received headers by a perl sub, mail is being
received via Postini's anti spam service which proxies SMTP -
unfortunately that's the only way to get the real senders IP) is
'valid'.

I can of course write another perl method to do the check, it just
seems to me that it wold be sensible for reverse_host_lookup to do it.
But.... It seems I'm the first person to ask for it, so perhaps not
:)
