If I understand this correctly, I think this is the nature of the beast. If you send an email to multiple addresses at the same server/domain, some of which are good, and others which are not, the smtp protocol only allows for rejection or acceptance of the entire message, somewhat unfortunately. Qmail remedies the situation by sending messages individually, but this doesn't solve the problem of other servers sending a mix of valid and invalid addresses in the same message.

Also, addresses are processed by chkuser in whatever order the sending server provides them. Sequence is of no significance.

the first e-mail rcpt is legit.
It appears that if more rcpts follow, and those accounts dont exist, then the first legit e-mail is not processed, as is rejected with all the other bogus attempts to send e-mail the domain.

The chkuser test process appears to try a fake e-mail, and then a legit e-mail. BUt does not try a legit e-mail, and then a fake e-mail.
