Indeed. Actually, I was thinking of keeping a chache of verifications
(kinda like exim does). But I agree it's a bad idea. Worse, it would be a
technological crutch to an administrative problem.
I've already manage to schedule a meeting with them. I'll try to get them
to both, fix their setup and give me their user list. Strongarming might
not even be necesary (hopefuly).
