It is your *outbound* traffic that is at risk of rejection unless you use a 'proper' MTA / smarthost. An increasing number of MTA *DO* try to vet the source of incoming traffic, and that may include not only forward/reverse lookups, but also checking (R)BL's for the organizations that purport to offer workarounds. Ergo 'yi.org' may not be as useful as you think it is. Not to forget - this Exim mailing list is considerable more 'forgiving' as to what it accepts than many other MTA are - Exim or otherwise. It isn't about branding *everyone* who has 'no fixed address' as undesireables. It is about reminding those among them who give-a-damn, that they are operating in a manner that puts them on the 'deny' side of a test that is highly effective as to blocking zombies. If it waddles like a duck, looks like a duck, quacks like a duck... we call it a duck.
