If you reject incoming smtp connections, they'll just be back later,
and you'll be out the bandwidth it took to reject them in the first
place. Unless you have a reason to believe that bandwidth later (as
in: hours later) is cheaper than bandwidth now, you'd do better to
accept the message the first time.
