Valid SMTP in, valid SMTP out.

Yes, src/smtpd/smtpd.c:data_cmd(): if (prev_rec_type != REC_TYPE_CONT && *start == '.' && (state->proxy == 0 ? (++start, --len) == 0 : len == 1)) break; Skipping the leading "." only happens with no proxy. With a proxy, the verbatim SMTP stream is copied to the proxy... Only the message size limit is enforced, the rest is up to the proxy. -- Viktor. Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored. Please do not ignore the "Reply-To" header.
