Not true. I send messages to AOL all the time from a machine whose HELO
does not match its rDNS. Perhaps you mean that the HELO must be a valid
hostname that points to your server's IP address?
Well, all I know is when I used trusswood.net or mail.trusswood.net as
the helo (ip as above) I got a nice message not to spam them ;-D . I
then changed the helo message (for my server) to the rdns and all was
good again. The mx record points to mail.trusswood.net, mail is sent
from the trusswood.net ip (same as mail.trusswood.net).. I have
available to me 5 ips (using only 1 atm) I didn't see any need to put
the mail|web|outbound stuff off onto other ip's ('cause they go to the
same place anyway...)
But then again... we're a drop in the ocean of e-mail exchanges with them...
