Guys, I don't need a lesson on what you think should be done or what you think is the right thing to do, I just need help writing a rule. I setup mail servers all the time and I always make sure the: Mail server broadcast name, the 'A' record and the PTR all match, IT IS JUST GOOD PRACTICE, I am also not trying to block people who don't qualify, I just want to identify and score it!!
I would appreciate some help writing this rule..the SPAMMER who sent this knows what he/she is doing and it would be helpful to identify this trick.
