In article <eaf66404-0060-4363-d5cf-a7d4e2e8160b@network-heretics.com> you write:

The people I know don't have any trouble understanding that the same system, and
sometimes the same program, is an MSA when it's talking to an internal submission
client, and an MTA when it's talking to another MTA found using an MX.

You might want to reread RFC 5598 so you use the terms consistently
with the way everyone else does.

R's,
John
