You claimed that the "root problem" was not knowing who the originator was.

I claimed that you ALWAYS must know who the originator is -- they are at the other end of the connection.

You want to do a "reverse DNS lookup" for some reason.

I still do not understand how doing a "reverse DNS lookup" will help with the identity at the other end of the 
connection, since you already have to know that identity in order to perform a reverse DNS lookup...
