Most of them likely don't do dns lookups on all posting mailservers...

I don't agree with mandrakes decision to do that.. but you must admit, there
is not alot of spam on the list...

umm, before you suggest its easy to setup a massive listserv and several
MTA's to support it..

Try doing it yourself.. all the mandrake lists put together probably equals
50,000 or more members..

All it takes is some DNS resolving lag, and you get problems like this..

especially since mandrake resolves mail server domains to reduce spam...

all that overhead is bound to sometimes produce unwanted results.
