Is there a plugin that will check rcpt addresses against a back end smtp

I presume you intend to eventually deliver to the same smtp backend, via
the smtp-forward plugin.
I've long argued that the smtp-forward plugin should hook into different
phases of the transaction, and do the recipient validation directly
against the backend:

I think it should be optional, but yeah. There are downsides (such as
keeping open the SMTP connection with the backend), but it'd be nice if
you could choose.
