Ok ;)

Yayi! So my understanding was wrong.

I see the line of reasoning, but again, I still suspect that the
verification is being triggered by this rule:

 accept domains  = +sqlserve_domains
    endpass
        verify   = recipient

Not quite, if you factor in the above suspicion..
Having disabled that rule, the message is now gone. However, I still
want to verify the recipient somehow, before accepting the mail. I think
I am going for "recipient callout". Now heading back to spec.txt..



        cheers
