Using DNSExpert (www.MenAndMice.com) a couple of weeks ago, I discoverd 
that while my BIND 8.1's db.62.161.87 reverse file is correct, the reverse 
zone has not been delegated to me by my upstream, so reverse lookups fail 
anyway.

While Imail5's doc explains clearly what reverse lookups are and says the 
reverse zone file has to be setup (Imail's doc is actually quite 
excellent), the doc fails to mention that the reverse file is only useful 
when under control of the authority for the reverse zone.  I suggest 
Ipswitch add this necessary point to their reverse zone discussion.

Along with SSL or other encrypted suupport, it would be useful to have the 
option in Imail of smtp server doing reverse lookups.
