Which is a very bad idea. For many reasons:
- Blacklists etc. create havoc with the checking
- Timeouts
- It is extremely easy to conduct DDoS against a mail server, if this 
becomes widespread (think a spammer sending a large number of spams 
forging your domain, which is bad even now, and it'll be a disaster if 
everybody used callback).
Probably there are other reasons I haven't thought of
