According to

http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section3#3.38

What does "may be forged" mean?

"After sendmail does a hostname look-up on the IP address of the connecting
client, the IP addresses of that hostname are looked up. If the client IP
address does not appear in that list, then the may be forged tag is added."

So it's NOT comparing the HELO, but actually doing a IP->hostname->IP lookup.
Which in my opinion is a reason to NOT let whitelist_from_rcvd match.

But seeing that I'm alone with that, I'll think about something procmail-ish to
replace the localhost whitelist entry.
