On a large scale I think it's quite reckless. Even on a small scale it=20
ought to be limited in some way: perhaps do SPF checks and only verify=20
SPF failures.

Note the "WARNING" text in the ADDRESS_VERIFICATION_README.

Does it work well for you? Does it come after other restrictions?=20
(Speaking of which, I took you up on the suggestion to put sqlgrey=20
before RBL's. I think you were right about that, thanks.)

Do they really? Wow. Not surprising, though.

One of these days (when I have all my spam-fighting perfected ;) ) I=20
will switch to using my own server address for list postings, and quit=20
abusing poor GMX with the tons of spam they get for me. :)
