Hi, 

I'm more or less new to postmastering and I'm facing some errors
displayed below. 

I reached the fellow postmaster of the receiving server and he said that
recipient address verification could cause the problem and attached for
me his postfix error log. 

> May 6 22:39:17 receivingmailserver postfix/smtpd[37426]: too many errors 
> after RCPT from mail.example.com[4.2.3.1]

Since I'm not familiar with recipient address verification, I've read
the docs though, but can't clearly understand / decide if the error
comes from recipient verification probing or something else. Is it good
to have it or it should be disabled it? 

Which is the best practice?
