I was mentioning cases where someone compares HELO to FQDN and rejects
connections if they do not match. That was indicated by the message (even

Ok, agreed. If they don't match don't reject, just give that a point.
However, a FQDN in the HELO being unresolvable is a valid reason to
reject. Per RFC2821 3.6 it MUST resolve.
