My milter disallows relaying from any connect IP that seems "dynamic", such as having no rDNS at all. > # reject bad syntax hostname > reject_invalid_hostname, > # non FQDN gets the boot > reject_non_fqdn_hostname I have my milter set up to reject any form of numeric hello, even the RFC-compliant [xx.xx.xx.xx], and then to reject if the hello has DNS "A" record. I don't check for "MX", since AIUI anything with an "MX" record should have an "A" record, and "MX" records are for receiving email, not sending it. >and after that it checks it against the blackhole DNS server and then >greylisting.
