It's quite common for QMail to do this for the reasons you state.

It would seem that Compuserve doesn't generate 550 errors on unknown
recipients--it waits and sends a message back to the sender that the
user doesn't exist. This makes callback useless.

Is this a popular way for a MTA to act? It would seem to generate
more bandwidth, but perhaps be a little easier on system load...

any thoughts?
