BTW, this log entry in itself proves that the DNS name must resolved
back and forth, because otherwise postfix would have logged
"unknown[76.96.30.96]" instead of
qmta09.emeryville.ca.mail.comcast.net[76.96.30.96]
-- which was also the HELO hostname!

mail_version = 2.7-20090807-nonprod

Hm, my "problem" (?) is probably related to the 20090807 change:

        Workaround: NS record lookups for certain domains always
         fail, while other queries for those domains always succeed
         (and even return replies with NS records as additional
         information).


Ah, I think I see. Both those hosts have an A record, but no MX record.

Assuming this is related to the question I just posted about reject_unknown_helo_hostname citing the same change, it appears to me that the helo checks are now incorrectly requiring a valid MX record.
