One thought on the idea that doesn't get much attention in prior spam 
teergrubing discussions. I'd prefer to see the connection handed off to 
a small process independant of the MTA. Currently, I'm unintentionally 
(RBLDNS denied, but connection hanging around for some reason) 
teergrubing around 60 machines on my primary SMTP server. That's fine 
and good to help rid the world of spam, but it ties up plenty of 
resources on my machine as well (2-4 MB of swap, 1-2 MB of RAM). I can 
spare the sockets, but it would be nice if a lightweight daemon could 
hang on instead of sendmail.
