    You can get the original (pre-cleanup) envelope and helo information into
    your logs if you are willing to do bloat your logs a little (on my system
    today 36MB out of 182MB of log data is due to the trick below):

            smtpd_helo_restrictions = warn_if_reject reject

    This logs the helo name, client, envelope sender and envelope recipient as
    a reject_warning. It would be cleaner to create a "log_envelope"
    restriction that always returns DUNNO but writes a less misleading log
    message with the same data, the overhead would also be smaller without the
    extra baggage from reject_warning.
