Hi Dave, I do similar work in MIMEDefang using the a redis backend for caching valid recipients combined with Net::validMX that can check to see if a sender has valid MX before sending. I have a release of Net::validMX I'm about to post this week in fact.
If you are interested, let me know. Regards, KAM -- Kevin A. McGrail Asst.
