RE: TMDA & SA
Hi,
if someone sends you lots of crap from a handful of forged addresses, and your verification
does not cache results, you might create a lot of connects to innocent systems (and possibly
get blacklisted for that)
What happens if the other side does the same, and starts a smtp connection to your server in
response to your verification attempt? You might get two machines locking up each other.
A careful design (verifying at DATA command) would probably avoid that.
Both sender address validation and CR may lose valid email
I am using address verification but in the context of a web form: if a visitor is supplying an email
that seems to be unreachable, he/she would be asked to supply a different one.
