Hi Dan, I've suggested to enhance this check and add a new test that checks if REVDNS, Sender-Domain and optionaly the HELO/EHLO string has the same second and top-level-domain.
If yes I assume we can be pretty sure that this is a good configured and maintained mail server not only set up for some days to send out spam and we can give them some negative points. This test will not only cover some domains listed in a manual updated text file but will favour automatically all good configured mail servers around the world. The question is if spammers are (already ore on the future) able to set up the own SMTP-engine with all this requirements. Maybe this test should only be triggered if the regarding IP is not listed as an open relay - even if it has all the mentioned requirements.
