It's not an "active" authentication. The script I created only dumps the Xmail users once and creates Apache user and group files. I set mine to run as a cron job every 48 hours so it picks up changes. The only overhead involved is the script running via cron every 48 hours (less than 2 seconds

This was a problem dificult to solve for me. After several months of disscusions with other domain admin´s , I choose to not check RDNS in order to keep my clients happy (almost). There´s too much domains without RDNS config and many more admins who doesn´t know (IMHO) what is exactly RDNS. RDNS
