But Patrick, wont this just cause email servers behind your routers to 
quickly queue up with mail, with a Connection Timeout? I would think that 
doing reverse dns lookups would be better since they would filter out those 
domains that donot exist and maybe someone can hackup a script to 
automatically blacklist those domains that fall in this category.
