Yep, they are badly misconfigured. The smtp: should have been stripped before it left their network and square brackets are reserved for use with IP numbers and then only on the right side of the @ dan@[209.25.4.3] Handling these addresses in check_rcpt would be easy since you don't need to worry about side effects with other rules. But I really doubt they'll make it through your normal rulesets either. You're just catching the error earlier in the game. BTW, with an error of 471 normal MTAs will retry the message, maybe that was your intent since you're still testing.
