Again... as long as they aren't engaging in backscatter, it doesn't 
matter to me...

You're right, its not an argument... its a simple statement of fact.

Besides, I don't think sendmail would need to be 'enhanced' - I think 
you'd only need to figure out how to configure it to respond properly. 
If it wasn't, that would be a huge reason not to use it and just use 
postfix (the only reason I can think of that anyone in their right mind 
would use sendmail when postfix is available is simply that they grew up 
on it and were comfortable with it)...

So? That doesn't change the fact that there's a right way and wrong way 
to do things wrt recipient validation...
