Just get the MX records for the sending domain (which are almost certainly in cache) and make sure they resolve to real IP addresses. We reject domains that publish MX records in 127/8 or the RFC 1918 networks. Out of 3.7 million recent messages, we have rejected just over 26,000 for this reason. There may be FPs, but no-one has complained and anyone who publishes such an MX record IMO deserves to be banned. Regards, David.
