Hi Steinar,

I could ask you to 'prove it', too, but I can easily check when I get back from 
my current travels :-)

It important to note that even if it does (as I think it does) it is NOT in 
violation of the RFC. The RFC simply says that if a client wants something it 
should ask for it, and not that a server cannot send the options unsolicited.

Best regards,

John
