Likewise. But an MSA server to what sort of *client* to the MSA functionality? i.e. - internal/sibling MX in your own load-balancing, segregated incoming/ outgoing, prioritized, or 'failover' pool, distant but approved 'relay_from_hosts'? (might - just perhaps - justify some out-of-the-ordinary / 'extra' checks. Probably at least exhibit 'predictable' behaviour.) - end-user MUA's (unpreditable, almost certain to break many of the sloppy ones, and no certainty of improvement in security) Either way, 'other and better means' than looking for a misplaced 'HELO'.
