I agree too: this feature is not good. But this Postfix behaviour is really
annoying. What I can do with "4xx mailbox does not exist" response? Add another
HDD for my outbound queue? Maybe we need the configuretion option something as
"wrong_4xx_workaround" in transports? Why we have the "helo_allow_chars" option
(which is really needed in the real world) but cannot do anything with wrong
smtp codes?
