Hi, there,

let me explain two scene why this callouts are abuse.

1.
me@domA send mail to you@domB
--> domB callout whith postmaster@domB if me@domA is valid.
--> domA use callout to -> so call domB if postmaster@domB is a valid
user .... loop

2. if someone sends spam with you@yourdomain around the net
every mailserver asked you if there is a vaild account at yourdomain. I
think it's a fine DOS ...

just my two cents.

Best Rene
