It's done by > authenticating to your home MTA, ... No, that's also incorrect. A more correct version is that it seems the RMX notion creates a new requirement for a "home sending MTA." That new requirement conflicts with the business models of many ISPs and the preferences of many users. Whether that new requirement is a good idea (I doubt it) is a separate issue. ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] ] From: "Eric D.

IDENT is not used for that type of purpose and should not be used to ] authorize or authenticate any activity on Internet. Please justify that claim. I think it is entirely wrong. IDENT was invented precisely to add accountability for bad actors; never mind that I and many others argued from the start that it was a waste of effort and bandwidth. That spam was not one of the original bad acts is also irrelevant. Consider http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/doc/op-sh-2.html#sh-2.9 which starts: } Sendmail supports the IDENT protocol as defined in RFC 1413. Although } this enhances identification of the author of an email message ... That the rest of that text suggests that some of the the people responsible for sendmail think as little of that as I think of RMX seems like yet another irrelevancy.
