I don't know if I ever did report back. Anyways, in three months
I haven't seen any undesirable side effects, so here is a patch against
8.12.10's sendmail/srvrsmtp.c. It basically just moves a small chunk
of code.
I only got one comment from the sendmail people. It pointed out
that with this change people would get responses letting them know when
they hit an invalid address, thus allowing dictionary scans, and asking
if I really wanted to do that. Given that this was what happened
before I implemented MIMEDefang, and the alternative was 1000+ double
bounces in my inbox every day, the answer is a most emphatic, "Yes!"
Fine tuning can come later; flooding my inbox was something that had to
stop immediately.

I saw it and I like your suggestion. I'm keeping it in mind for a
future revision when I have some time.
