(Apologies if you received multiple copies of my last email; must have 
had my finger on the send button to long!)

But does it check each address that the email has passed through or just 
the source? In any case a reverse DNS only checks that there is a 
registered host for that address. Unless you check that he registered 
host is a valid MX for the domain, there is no point doing the check. Or 
is there?
