Just want to confirm... I'm correctly reading that stream_by_recipient() 
does not accept for all recipients before filter_recipient has a chance to 
[temp]fail?

And this means white/black/greylisting implementations that operate in 
filter_recipient should still work - without sendmail having to generate a 
bounce?
