Right. Like most protocols, the enforcement mechanism consists of interoperation failures. However, unlike most protocols, historical implementations of SMTP have tolerated many and egregious protocol violations, so there is a chicken-and-egg problem with rolling in protocol conformance checks. Illegal pipelining is just one of the forms of protocol violation that has historically been tolerated, and has current prominence because it's now being abused by ratware. This has produced a positive side to adopting pipelining conformance checks, counterbalancing the negative side that has kept such checks out until now. We're now in the uncomfortable unsettled transition period from widely unchecked and nonconforming to widely checked and conforming. /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse@rodents.montreal.qc.ca / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Asrg mailing list Asrg@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/asrg
