Here is the snippet from the log file:

[...]
2005/01/24 16:30:36 [14223]:   smtp_validate: Cannot import DNS class.
Trying AD
NS...
2005/01/24 16:30:36 [14223]:   smtp_validate: Cannot import ADNS class.
Feature
disabled.
2005/01/24 16:30:36 [14223]:   SMTP validation could not determine that
sender is invalid.
2005/01/24 16:30:36 [14223]: Sending confirmation.
[...]

Is it OK?

I'd like to know before enabling validation globally.

Sincerely,
Gour
