Michael, Here is a very quick description of the issue. Frontbridge advertises that it supports pipelined requests. But it disconnects after the current request is served if any request in the pipeline is a QUIT. This causes a serious problem because sender address verification, in effect, asks all at once, "ehlo can i send from this address to this address, nevermind, bye!" Frontbridge responds with "hello, sender ok, bye!" When the valid thing to do is to say, "hello, sender ok, recipient ok, reset ok, bye!" Our only option at this point is to turn off pipelining when talking to frontbridge, because frontbridge's pipelines are broken. This is a terribly negative thing. It would be much better if this broken behaviour were fixed. Do you think you could use your contacts to raise this issue with the right people? -- Regards, Stephen Thorne Development Engineer Netbox Blue
