| I was double bounce spamed. I tried to look up the info in the maillog, 
| bit it all appears to be disconnected:

As far as I can tell, the default logging does not provide sufficient
information to connect a tcpserver session with the corresponding
message.  For that reason, I interpose an extra process between the
tcp socket and qmail-smtp, which logs certain responses from
qmail-smtp:

  smtpd: pid 16927 250_ok_1112441572_qp_16929/

The pid lets me connect this to the tcpserver "ok" log entry, and the
"qp 16929" lets me connect it to the log entries from qmail-send.
