My bad I should've been more specific, that is indeed what I will personally be doing on any networks that I can, which should be basically everything.
I'm also considering the other alternative suggested by some, which is to push traffic to a host of my own.
I will have to do something about email bound for mis-spelled domains because I do not and will not trust some anonymous third party even with my users mis-spelled domain names. So I think one way or another I'm going to be forced into doing work that I don't have time, nor desire to do, just to provide my users with the services they expect. As I'm sure a number of places are going to have to do.
Not really networking related -- but -- when VeriSign had SiteFinder turned on before I experienced markedly larger mail queues because of brain-damaged Snubby and/or mail rejector. Not really a problem for my MTA, but more of an issue that I can only imagine how much this caused really big ISPs like AOL to increase the amount of email in their outbound queues.
