    Dear D Hill,

    I want to know, how to log the entry of introducing host in the logs
    when it is correct and resolvable. (ie. mail does not get rejected,
    during that time).

    Regards,
    ANANT.

    per the above example, as we have used the policy of
    reject_unknown_hostname and the mails where introducing host is not
    resolvable are getting rejected.Now, when the users complain that,
    some mails are not getting delivered to them, we go through logs and
    find the reason like one above and inform that this is due to this
    and tell the sender also to look into their configuration and resolve
    the issue. And most of the times, they solve the issue.But, when they
    solve, I want to know what their system is now introducing itself as.
    How can I make it part of log? Can it also
