I use qmail-toaster, and recently changed from using -H with tcpserver 
to using -h, which looks up the rDNS name and puts it in the 
TCPREMOTEHOST variable.

With the former setup (-H), the remote portion of the CHKUSER log 
message contained the helo value, "unknown" for the remotehostname, and 
the remotehostip value.

With the current setup (-h, or blank), the message now contains the rDNS 
name in place of "unknown", as expected. The helo portion though, is now 
blank/null (missing). Is there some reason why the helo value isn't 
shown when there's a remotehostname value present? Looks like a bug to me.

Many thanks, Tonix!
