Different issue. They provide 2 services POP-free and IMAP-pay, and DNS/SRV has no way to do smart 'preferred'. (per user again) If they make IMAP preferred, then their free users get no email. If they make POP preferred, then their pay users get told to use POP and not the IMAP they pay for. RFC 6186: section 3.4, " ...When an MUA supports both IMAP and POP3, it SHOULD retrieve records for both services and then use the service with the lowest priority value. ..." and first paragraph on page 2 "... The priority field of the SRV record can also be used to indicate a preference for one message store access protocol over another. ... For users that upgrade, would have to manually update their MUA. I would hope that a configuration standard would allow for update data that does not tell them to use the wrong store/port. They choose the option that makes their per-users happy. -- Doug Royer - (http://DougRoyer.US) DouglasRoyer@gmail.com 714-989-6135
