Hahahaha, I figured someone will catch this. Glad it was you. :) If anything John, it shows the power of POLICY and also the concern of FALSE POSITIVES. To a HUMAN, this was a good message by John Levine, but under a wide general automated operations world that includes the unknowns, including people that don't know you John (domain), we need general software guidelines all can follow. IMO, it would be better to REJECT your flawed message for your sake than to make it an indeterminate condition. With POLICY, its no longer indeterminate. To even begin get this right, we need some level of protocol consistency among WG documents. To continue with the subjective and one WG document conflicting with another WG document, seems to be an very problematic issue to address for this WG. -- Hector Santos, CTO http://www.santronics.com http://santronics.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
