No.  This will allow anyone to connect to your SMTP server.  Whether they
can send mail or not depends on the contents of rcpthosts, the envelope
recipient of the message they try to send, and whether the RELAYCLIENT
environment variable is set.

A default rule of :deny almost _never_ makes sense for the .cdb file
controlling access to your SMTP daemon.
