I feel that the days of "be liberal in what you accept" for SMTP are long over. Yahoo! uses greylisting now. How liberal is that? Mail abuse is just too prevalent. Being RFC compliant is not too much to ask IMO. I never run into this problem myself anyway, and I maintain many systems, big and small. Besides, by not including the patch by default, I'm not preventing anyone from using it. Regards, Bill
