This has been suggested before, and ACLs suggested for it. However, I have often wondered about its reliability? Do most well-behaved MTAs properly re-transmit only the refused recipients (second recipient and higher)? Are there cases where an MTA will try and submit all the recipients again on re-connecting? Is it a big enough problem to worry about? Jethro. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
