Hi Joh, 

IMHO BATV's major problem is that it doesn't play well
with greylisting systems. Since there's so many greylisting systems out
on the internet, that means implementing it may just cause unnecessary
delays in emails, for little gain. 

IMHO recipient-checks (backscatter
milters like scam-back, etc) handle this problem well enough. 

Please
