I only changed the service that was most drastically affected, my anti-spam
relays. I put in a HACK() that restored the "sender domain must exist"
behavior to sendmail, when a sender domain resolved to the SiteFinder
address. I figured my measures ought to affect as little as possible, and
address only real operational problems that the wildcards caused.
I am optimistic that this is the last time we'll see any wildcards in any
gTLDs.
