If Postfix enforced 100% RFC compliance, then it would not
be useful.
When I implemented the SMTP server straight from RFC821, I found
that Postfix could not talk to lots of legitimate mail software.
Over time, a extra code was added to Postfix so that it could talk
with legitimate systems, and not all this extra code has an "off"
switch.
BTW this mailing list is for discussing of new postfix development.
Use postfix-users for general questions about Postfix.
