        Pausing only happens on errors, not on success. Assuming that
the vast majority of mail that your clients send is to valid
addresses and is syntactically correct, you should see virtually no
pauses at all.

        The only ones you might see are ones that result from doing DNS
queries on host/domain names to see if they exist, and whether that
happens or not would depend on your postfix configuration.

        Trust me, overall this is a very good idea.

     Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
      Unix is very user-friendly.  It's just picky who its friends are.
