> No, because milter doesn't allow that. And I'm kinda glad about this, because when my users have problems, they usually tell me "I'm not getting email from so-and-so...", and having the "MAIL FROM" data in the log entries at the time a bad HELO is kicked out, makes it easier to grep the logfiles for the problem, given the way the user phrases the problem. I log sender, recipient, and IP at earliest opportunity, and can then capture the Sendmail queue ID for further grepping.
