You can rest easy. It's a mailing list where all subscribers have
requested to be subscribed. Further, a goodly number of them send me
donations to help keep it running. It's integrated with my web site
(that's in dire need of updating):
http://www.fatfree.com
I also have permission from my relay site to use them as an smtp
relay. All is legit.

Someone mentioned to me there was a standard saying that sites should be
able accept up to 100 multiple RCPT commands, but added that he knows
from experience that not all are able. This is second-hand info, so
don't know if it is true nor do I recall what standard he was refering
to.
