I don't see where ASSP does any recipient address validation to ward-off dictionary attacks. There was some mention of LDAP validation, but only a passing reference - I didn't see anything in the docs or config file about it.
If a spammer sends a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ddd does not exist for that domain on your real MTA, how does ASSP know that and drop/reject that connection, saving cycles for your real MTA?
