greetings,

(1) reject_unknown_helo_hostname:
Reject the request when the HELO or EHLO hostname has no DNS A or MX record.

This seems reasonable.

(2) reject_unknown_client_hostname:
Reject the request when 1) the client IP address->name mapping fails, or 2) the name->address mapping fails, or 3) the name->address mapping does not match the client IP address.

This seems too strict.
It requires the sender IP has a valid PTR, which has a correct A RR, which must match sender IP back. Otherwise the sender IP will be rejected by this clause.

I have tested that many German (I once lived there) mail providers such as web.de, freenet, t-online, vodafone have this setting enabled. But other big providers like yahoo/aol/gmail/outlook seem not.

Thanks.
Tom
