Indeed, that is what will happen. You will have to remove the
"fail_verify" option on the director. Then it won't fail at RCPT TO
time. The problem with this is that if you are also using sender_verify,
it won't fail senders that are gone away. Rats. Does this mean we need
separate "fail_verify_sender" and "fail_verify_receiver" options? I
hadn't thought of this before, because we don't run with receiver_verify
here.
