The above is only one of many false-positives.

'raw' sender verify should not be relied on as an all-or-nothing test.

The Exim MLM on sesame, for example fails sender verify at 'recipient', yet is 
certainly on MY list of 'good guys'.

You need either a more sophisticated crafting of sender verification, a 
'weighted' reaction to its return codes, or both.

Else use it only to add warning headers, not to reject.
