Mine is very qmail specific - I sort of feel generalising it would make it worse. Either you use qmail, in which case you might like it as it stands, (possibly in addition to other recipient checks) or you don't use qmail, in which case you can ignore it completely. I've posted the source (with disclaimers - I'm still on qpsmtpd v0.28) at http://schmerg.com/checkgoodrcptto-a-qpsmtpd-plugin-for-checking and will see about adding it to the wiki when I can set up an account there. Cheers -- Tim
