Subject: reject_unknown_sender_domain - still relevant?

Hi all,

I note that the vast majority of "Domain not found:" messages due to
'reject_unknown_sender_domain' are from misconfigured sender mail systems, or
misspellings in user MTA's.

Plus, spammers seem to be stealing EXISTING domains anyway (including ours =( )
for their fake From's.

Therefore, would you agree that this is no longer useful, except when used
against systems relaying through you? I think it would be good to check
the sender domains on your clients to protect the mail from being refused
by strict destination MTAs.

Thanks for your opinions,
---m
