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

I took a quick look at draft-klensin-smtp-521code-02 and I don't see
anything wrong with it. I suggest moving it forward through
whatever means are most expeditious.

My only two minor comments on the text as it stands are first,
that I believe the RFC editor has a thing about references to
other documents in the abstract, so that may be an issue with
how it's presently worded.

Second, I'm not quite comfortable with the phrase "the preferred message".
Perhaps "a possible messsage" or "an acceptable message"?
