since the banner usually presents the same hostname as HELO/EHLO, the test can still be useful.

I am about the "usually". consider a setup
[examples snipped...]

I did consider those setups when I wrote my message. "Usually" is *not* the same as "allways" or even "almost allways".

BTW, I never said I thought the banner test was a good idea, nor that the explanations on the site was any good. I said it *can* be useful ("can be" != "is").

PS. Make sure the page doesn't get abused by robots.

How would I do that, considering that I have no control over the page (or server) in question?
