 It is totally reasonable for protocols and software and configurations to
 need adapting over time. Especially in light of privacy and security
 concerns.

That's why, now that we are aware that minimization causes this kind of problem, we should fix it. It's not like it's that hard to do. As I said a few messages back, blaming the victim is not a great plan.

It's not always the latest change that needs to be fixed.

 Write a draft and we have something to discuss.

Well, sure. My flight was cancelled and I'm stuck in Frankfurt so I might as well do it this afternoon.

Note that my original point was that if the current RBL lives at
antispam.rbl-vendor.org, simply moving it to _antispam.rbl-vendor.org
might fix it if the underscore handling mentioned in the minimized query
RFC is actually implemented with some code in the current implementations,
in which case this situation might be easier than writing a draft and
updating all software for it. That was the only point I was making.
