Don't forget that all verify does is go through the routers and sees if it is
possible to route it. One problem I've see people encounter is a manualroute
router that unconditionally sends all mail to a smarthost. Don't forget that you
can set routers to be ignored when verifying and set routers that are only used
for verifying.
