I didn't appreciate that stream_by_recipient causes mail to be accepted before the validity of the recipient addresses has been checked.

Actually, this is a milter issue.

You can fix this by adding a filter_recipient routine that checks if an address is valid and returns ('REJECT', "User unknown") if it is not.

Just want to confirm... I'm correctly reading that stream_by_recipient() does not accept for all recipients before filter_recipient has a chance to [temp]fail?


And this means white/black/greylisting implementations that operate in filter_recipient should still work - without sendmail having to generate a bounce?
