This is my point! Because there is no way to know my server vs some
iddiot with an open relay, (at least, not on the first communication)
that is why I think it would be nice to have the ability to route failed
messages to a smarthost so that they can be delivered that way, if
possible. I'd say a good 85% of the 5xx's I get are from DUL blocks.
DON'T have it be a default option! Make it something that must be
explicitly configured.
