> Failure to correctly set mail.smtp.localhost in RemoteDelivery leads to mail servers being listed on cbl.abuseat.org and mail being rejected by Spamhaus.
> Shortly after the upgrade to 2.3.0 we were listed on the CBL (cbl.abuseat.org)
> block list apparently because our mail server sends "localhost" as the
> HELO when doing RemoteDelivery.
> Attempting to use the <bind> tag to RemoteDelivery as noted on some mailing lists for servers with multiple IP addresses didn't fix the problem and only a hard-coded patch was sufficient to avoid being re-listed.
> A message left on the james-users mailing list implies that this has happened to others too and may be down to the thread delay issue already mentioned in a TODO in the code above the setting of HELLO_NAME.
