Currently assp writes its received header correctly but establishes 
communication with the mailserver announcing itself in helo/ehlo 
using the same helo/ehlo that it received. This results in the 
headers I copied below.

The problem is that 1) headers are supposed to provide a "chain of 
custody" per the RFC's and 2) RFC 821/2821 para 3.6 requires the 
domain name given with the helo/ehlo must be the primary host name 
(or a domain literal only if the host has no name) and assp fulfills 
neither critera as shown below.

Would it be possible to fix this? The best way might be on startup to 
do a reverse lookup of its IP and use myName if the IP is in the 
unroutable groups? An alternative might be to add a GUI entry to 
allow users to define the helo/ehlo domain/host used for Client 
Initiation or maybe just reuse myname for this purpose since, "ASSP 
will identify itself by this name in the email "Received:" header and 
in the helo when sending report-replies. Usually the fully qualified 
domain name of the host."

Example received lines:
