And I am about to move WEIGHT15 to Delete instead of BOUNCE because of the
flood of bounce messages. The ones that come back with: "553 sorry, that
domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts" or just  "Connection refused"
I am blacklisting completely.

But the hundreds of postmaster messages from bad domains is getting real old
real fast...
