I'm thinking of MTA(n-1) as a department's outgoinggmailhub or ISP's
smarthost.  It's usually configured to accept anything from within the
IP range it's supposed to cover, and use DNS MX to pick MTA(n) for
non-local recipients.

That's the sort of situation in which I was under the impression that
MTA(n-1) would often be unable to get the recipient-verify callout
information.  Have I got this wrong?

No, but that's no different from making a direct attempt to deliver the mail. Your smarthost shouldn't accept mail from non-local addresses, unless authenticated. You should be able to punish local spammers.
