the reason why i would like to keep the helo checks as the first ones is that they make up 90% of all the rejections, while all the other restrictions are the remaining 10%. but it is also true that at the moment i don't know how much of this 90% would get rejected also based on the recipient. for that, it would be nice to have the tool i am asking about :] maybe i could apply your suggestion for a while and have some stats based on the new logs. -f -- who is general failure? and why is he reading my disks?
