As I know, table sources is needed to bind smtpd to an interface while mail sending, but table helonames is for session IP=name. sorces != helonames in my particular configuration. So it doesn't work for me.
smtpd should bind to local interface like localhost or another interface on local system, but smtpd should expose its external address in heloname of remote system from which mail actually send. Any ideas?
