Please, spare me your righteous anger. You may continue to operate a broken mail server. I never said you couldn't. I frankly don't care who you don't get mail from. My mistake for letting the other fellow know what a bad idea it is.
translation: "i don't know the RFC's, I have no basis for claiming that other's mailserver are broken, and I'll continue to evade directly confronting my error and apologizing for my mistaken claim by pretending to take 'the high road'"
you didn't say "what a bad idea it is". you said his mailserver was broken. prove it. put up or shut up.
