I don't understand this - removed?  From where?

That problem will be taken care of automatically by keeping pending/
clean using the techniques in the FAQ I mentioned.  I thought you
meant dropping the message when it arrives if the domain can't be
resolved.

Unfortunately, we all use NSI, if only indirectly.  Your registrar has
to go through them for certain configurations.  I have a friend with a
third-party registrar whose information at the root level got
completely screwed; it pointed to someone else's .net resolver that
had, of course, never heard of his domain.  It turned out NSI had
screwed up the request made by his registrar.  :( Sad, but true.
