You're correct, but there's one thing you can't ignore: If it's /your/ setting that causes the mail not to get where it should, then the users are going to say it's /your/ problem. And I got this even from the most tech-savvy of them.
I feel I should give the best service to my users, and their losing messages isn't really good, even if in the long run I may be helping spammers do their nasty business. Gerrit P.
