Even though my gateway machines don't have the address books of the
internal machines.
I don't get very many bounce backs.
As most mail get's rejected as spam, before it bounces back though.

I tried to get read the ldap address book entries from my internal
exchange server (5.5) but I could never get it to work.
I couldn't justify the effort as I'm don't really see it as a big deal at
this point.
I'm sure i should, but I can't justify the effort for the return.
