I know I would loose functionality like immediately rejecting bad recipients, a feature some MUA users like. But assumed a bad rcpt bounce would be returned to the original sender, right?
Early bad recipient rejection is a must in my opinion, specially if you're dealing with untrusted senders. I would implement another milter in the frontend mailer, just to check for bad recipients. Or you could use standard sendmail features, like the access-map (maybe through LDAP tables). Don't tell anyone, but I construct an access-map using my passwd and praliases with a cronjob, and install it in my external server periodically. It might not be the best performance solution, but it works very well for my 20k message/day server. Before that, it was a homemade milter which rad a .db file, but I dropped it when I could reproduce the same with access.db, and because I couldn't make my milter and milter-greylist work together.
