Finally, someone who is not an smtp nazi.  My policy 
is as follows:
	1) Of my servers a few are designated as MX 
           hosts.  These require a valid FQDN.  
           This holds someone responsible for the 
           mail my servers relay.
	2) My other servers will only relay mail if 
           it originates or terminates locally.
