Hi,

please feel free to do a local override of the macro. How to do this is
explained in the package docs. Andreas might revise the default in the
package, if it were my decision, I wouldn't change this, even if in
these days where explicit SMTP routing is not even used any more by
spammers.

Please also note that it is clearly documented that this rule blocks
addresses that are RFC-valid.

Greetings
Marc
