additional parameters to the SMTP MAIL and RCPT commands
Hi all, does Postfix Supports additional parameters to the SMTP MAIL and RCPT commands as mentioned in RFC 2821 and others? RCPT TO: [ SP ] i have tried to use something like as follows in the sender Postfix Server RCPT TO: SP but it is not accepted by the recipient postfix server and gives an error 555 5.5.4 Unsupported option: SP (in reply to the RCPT TO command) any idea whats wrong ? regards sufian

You are aware that SP is one of the core AFNF rules and represents a single space character. -- r...@polylogics.com "The avalanche has already started, it is too Rod Dorman late for the pebbles to vote." - Ambassador Kosh

Hi, can you please elaborate? what is wrong?

"SP" is part of the ABNF grammar in the formal specification of the syntax of the command. It means a space character. There is no literal "SP" in the command. For example: RCPT To: notify=success,failure,delay 2. The SMTP server is not obliged to understand parameters it does not implement. If the EHLO response doesn't include a feature you need, you (as a client) cannot use it. 3. RFC 5321 is the current draft standard, and it's under revision (in the YAM working group of the IETF) to full standard. Cheers, Sabahattin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
