Okay have had the check_rcpt fileters in place  for a bit now and I am
getting the following from one site:

(<[smtp:User@Ourhost.net]>) rejection: 471

Now I know the the smtp: syntax can work but whats up with the [] brackets?

Are they badly miscomfigured or what. Should I tweak the ruleset to
allow this kind of thing?

Thanks,
