Yeah, I've had that happen a couple of times to one of my domains.  Not
sure how they decided that they should try 15,000 addresses within that
domain.  I finally had to add the whole domain to badrcptto, because the
messages were being sent from a few hundred relays.  Probably time to
enable rss on the main SMTP servers, instead of splitting messages off when
I deliver them.  RSS in particular has never blocked a legit message so
far.

I'm just waiting for it to happen again on a message I can track down --
the last one only included some generic 800 number.  You see, Colorado has
this law that apparently allows me to get $20 to $40 per copy of the
message...
