[apps-discuss] The SMTP 521 reply code, RFC 1846, and nullMX

[John C Klensin <[e-mail]>]

Hi.

There was a lot of activity around this in the middle of last
year, largely because of the nullMX draft
(draft-ietf-appsawg-nullmx).  According to the tracker, nullMX
has been sitting in the RFC Editor queue since mid-September, in
part because it contains a normative reference to
draft-klensin-smtp-521code.  I think the assumption was that a
quick Last Call was going to be done on the latter I-D, possibly
through appsawg, but nothing has ever happened.

According to the Secretariat's automatic system,
draft-klensin-smtp-521code-02.txt expires next week.

I'm happy to update and repost it if there is a plan to move it
forward.  Or I can let it expire, thereby either killing the
nullMX draft or requiring that it be reissued with a different
strategy and presumably a new Last Call.

Please advise.

    john
