It will involve using LDAP to verify the recipients, since you're
using Exchange 5.5. This is actually a big improvement over how
Exchange itself deals with mail -- it accepts all the mail, then
generates a bounce message if the recipient is invalid. This is
nasty because it often bounces forged spam to people who didn't send
it. By having Exim verify the recipient before accepting the message
you can avoid creating a new bounce message.


How many valid users are we talking about?
