The "Rules/HELO_DYNAMIC_IPADDR2" page has been changed by AndrewDaviel:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Rules/HELO_DYNAMIC_IPADDR2?action=diff&rev1=14&rev2=15

- ## page was copied from Rules/INVALID_DATE
- ## page was copied from Rules/NO_DNS_FOR_FROM
  ## page was copied from Rules/MISSING_HEADERS
  #language en
- == SpamAssassin Rule: INVALID_DATE ==
+ == SpamAssassin Rule: HELO_DYNAMIC_IPADDR2 ==
  
- ''Standard description:'' Invalid Date: header (not RFC 2822)
+ ''Standard description:'' Relay HELO'd using suspicious hostname (IP addr 2)
  
  === Explanation ===
  
+ The sender was identified by an upstream relay as using a numeric HELO address.
+ It is probably not a regular email client using an authorized relay.
- The Date header in the message is not compliant with 
- [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822#section-3.3|RFC 2822 Sec. 3.3]]
- 
- This suggests the sender is using a badly-written mailout program rather than a regular email client.
