I did not know about a-b-c-d but the a.b.c.d is doing well for me.

   14190 ACL helo hostname contains an IP  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

   86610 TOTAL

That's a huge number of rejects for 12 hours today, rejecting helo =
containing

A.B.C.D

or

A-B-C-D

The latter form picks up subscriber IPs that put the PTR hostname in the =

HELO field.

This is also very accurate filter with no false positives, that I now=20
include in the basic IMGate config.
