Right now, I'm preparing my top 10 domains used in spam and enabling SAV
for those.

Picking up some data from 4h when SAV was enabled from all users I get:
426 delivered emails
1742 rejected emails
985 rejects from sender checks from which:
302 were queued at the sender for SAV unverified results (*)
671 were queued at the sender for SAV undeliverable results
Maybe is SHOULDN'T help, but seems like a LOT of spam is still coming
from non-existing addresses (about 31% of the total email).
(*) this is the number that scares me a bit - it can be thanks to
greylisting, or possibly a loop caused by other server using SAV. I'm
checking into that.
