Ask the question: if DNS lookup does not work, even if only for a
brief time, would that result in the loss of mail?

The purpose of this feature is to prevent a server from announcing
a feature to an SMTP client, for example because it would result
in the loss of mail (a client has a problem with that feature).

What should happen:

a) Don't suppress keywords based on hostname, and risk losing mail.

b) Don't accept mail, to avoid loss of mail.

c) Something else?
