Yes, you're right, it's the only way to check helo.

I just checked on #rspamd IRC and there's a bug with the current rspamd 
1.9.4 and monitored_address, which means you can't actually set it to 
"facebook.com" or similar.
It has just been fixed by this commit:
https://github.com/rspamd/rspamd/compare/06db5f2fdab7...b8a931eda4a0

I've also tried setting disable_monitoring = true, but it doesn't seem 
to have any effect as I still see the error.

Anyway, it's cosmetic (I think?) and the new rules work great otherwise. 
  Thanks again for creating and sharing them with us.

Shutting up now.

Kind Regards,
Tim
