Yes, but after they time out a bounce will be generated. If the bounce ends
up going to the same place, you"re back to square one.
You should examine your bounce process. Whatever you"re doing, your bounces
should have a null envelope sender, so that a double-bounce gets flushed.

Would this be caused by having [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the dsnfrom ?? Should I leave this at <@> ? I was getting a lot of rejects from braindead servers that refuse to accept mail from <@>.
