The one gotcha I found was with outgoing email - various machine-generated
emails which were never to be replied to were using non-existant sender
addresses. Admittedly the solution to this is to fix the generated emails,
but it's worth knowing about. I'm using

    warn        log_message     = $sender_address
                !verify         = sender


in an ACL for a few days to track down the problem addresses (you can find
them in the rejectlog) before I actually replace it with a block:

   require     message         = Invalid sender address
               verify          = sender
