Description
===========
smtp-check-sender verifies the validity of an e-mail address by
probing the SMTP port of its primary mail exchanger without actually
sending mail to it (SMTP interruptus).

This feature, often called 'sender address verification' is available
for Postfix and Exim (and possibly others) at the MTA level.  That is
preferred if possible because it covers all users on the system and
saves TMDA work.  This script is made available for users who want
this functionality, but can't or don't want to implement it at the MTA
level.

Requirements
============
Python, and also the PyDNS module, available at
<URL:http://pydns.sourceforge.net/>.

Usage
=====
smtp-check-sender is meant to be run from your TMDA FILTER_INCOMING
file with a 'pipe' entry similar to the following:

# drop mail from verified bogus addresses which can't be replied to
pipe '~/bin/smtp-check-sender $SENDER' drop

$SENDER is expanded to the envelope sender address of the incoming
message.

If you want to experiment on the command line, you'd do so with
something like this:

$ echo | smtp-check-sender user@domain.tld

Uncomment the 'server.set_debuglevel(1)' line in the program for more
verbose output.

Limitations
===========
This technique will not work with MTAs (e.g, qmail) where you
cannot verify the validity of an address via SMTP.  Luckily, most
MTAs do not have this limitation.
