Coming from the perspective of an email admin for a medium-sized
regional Internet provider, external hosts that do callbacks against
our mail servers are immediately blocked. It's essentially an
instant-ban for a brief period of time.
You asked for personal opinions, so here's mine: There is never a
single instance where sender callouts are ever acceptable unless you
have prior permission from the remote host.
Callouts are quite reasonable, and useful, within your own email network
however.
