Thanks for your comments. I'll incorporate some of them. > 4.1.2: MX - Simply call the order value "preference." No one calls it "cost." Yeah, I know. But IMO, "cost" conveys the idea that the higher the number, the less-preferred the MX host. "preference" is confusing. > 4.2: Isn't "host" depreciated? Use "dig" instead. I don't believe host is deprecated, and I prefer its output format to that of dig, especially for the tutorial. > Page 9 example: You should not use local parts that have special > meanings. Replace "devnull" with something else. What makes you think "devnull" has a special meaning? :-) > 5.3: Actually, there are FIVE classes of reply codes.

I'm also not aware of any ESMTP extensions that use 1xx reply codes, but I'd be interested in hearing if there are any. > 6.1.2 - Received header. > You should NOT include examples of syntactically invalid received headers. Those are (slightly edited) examples of Received: headers that I really did receive. The goal here is to teach novices how to interpret real-world headers. It isn't to impress upon them the RFC-compliant syntax of theoretical Received: headers.
