I understand your perspectives.  I've been running sqlgrey since 2009.  
I was just wondering if you saw this issue as a big deal and, obviously, 
you don't. As soon as I hear from a recipient having any problem sending 
us email I check the mail log and then add their domain to 
clients_fqdn_whitelist.local if I see that they've truly connected.  
Again, thanks for the replies.  BTW, I've kept the reject_code = 451 
default since original installation.

P.S.  Even though I've been running sqlgrey for 6 years I've never been 
sure what the whitelist requires.  Is   troubled.com equivalent to  
*.troubled.com?   My intention is to add all servers and users in the 
troubled.com domain.  I've been adding both.

Thanks again,
Bruce
