Hi all

Some ISP's (exetel ... [EMAIL PROTECTED]) is one, that do not bounce notices when you send to an invalid email address).

Some ISP's do bounce a message , so you know the status , so you know it is futile to try again to the same address.

Why ISP exetel doesn't bounce messages supposedly is to reduce spam & email loops.

I am not convinced about that argument.Eg ....why has "greylisting" been developed?

Is there a consensus as of what is normal practise?
Is there an industry recommendation or policy?
Do the RFCs suggest a recommended policy?

Anybody with any thoughts on This?

Thanks in advanced  Much appreciated !

Roger Salisbury
