No other MTA should connect to your MTA using your MTA's IP as HELO string.
I don't know if there is any reason to connect with any other IP-address as
HELO-string.

Several people has set up a filter file containing 

HELO 0 CONTAINS [your.servers.ip.address]

Now add this filter file to your global.cfg file and assign a very high
weight.
My EHLOFILTER catches 4% of all processed messages without any false
positive (looking back the last 50 days)

Most spam (~99%) failing this test has already reached a final weight > 200%
of our hold weight. But anything going over 200% helps to decrease our
operators review work.
