Yes, the disconnect was my brain. I will try to plug that back in.

How do you do that in /etc/hosts? Suppose the mail arrives from a.b.c.d,
and they have some name outbound.example.com A a.b.c.d, but d.c.b.a.in-
addr.arpa does not exist.

For some users, for some (possibly all) senders, we require that d.c.b.a
.in-addr.arpa has some PTR record where the corresponding A record
resolves back to a.b.c.d.
