Well, espeed.com uses non RFC compliant mail servers as they don't
accept bounces. But to solve your problem, you should maybe only do a
recipient callout on domains you own or relay mail for.
deny
domains = +local_domains : +relay_to_domains
!verify = recipient/callout=60s
instead of only
deny
!verify = recipient/callout=60s
Or you can also use a recipient callout using the sender name
(/use_sender), but I don't really see the point of doing a recipient
callout on foreign domains.
