To be more realistic (and to close-in on any 'proposal' which might
subsequently develop), it would likely be far more feasible to assign
somewhat agressive negative weighting to sessions that use HELO (and
further possible to assign mild positive weighting to sessions that use
properly-formed EHLO), such as for use with session-wide rejects.
