I thought that too, and suggested a test for that to be added to Postfix. There was a long discussion about that, and basically, there are cases where you'd trip yourself up by blocking your own hostname in the HELO greeting. It is easy to implement with postfix to reject the message right at the connection level, but then you'd have to be careful of rejecting your own mail sometimes. Check the postfix archives for the full discussion. It was about 2 or 3 months ago. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber Inc.
