Simply have sendmail check to see if there is a PTR record if not, it gets
rejected anyway, but I agree its  apin in the ass, I have sent a notice to
my clients advising them that all routs to verisign are now a no go,
furthermore I reminded them it is my equipment and ultimately I decide
what content is permited... this includes verisign and thwat (who are
owned by verisign) certificates, which I now deem to be hostile content.

This is not the first time verisgn aka network non-solutions have fscked
with my business, so I sure as hell are going to return the favour now :)
