Would an "X-ASSP-Received-From:" header carrying the original
IP and HELO solve such an issue ? In such a case, ASSP may just
present itself using its own name instead of the sending host HELO
so you'll have your "chain"... although, I don't see such a thing as a
really big issue, a minor annoyance maybe, but not an issue at all,
and btw, if such a change would require overhead to ASSP, then
my opinion would be to leave things as they are :) at least until
someone won't demonstrate that the current behaviour is causing
some nasty problem or letting spam through
