OBJECTION: Last Call: Message Submission to Proposed Standard

["Vaudreuil, Greg M (Greg)" <[e-mail]>]

> I object to this being put forward as a proposed standard. My
> understanding
> after the last round of discussions on the IETF list was that the
> IETF-Submit document was to be advanced as a BCP, making no protocol
> changes
> to SMTP and documenting the use of SMTP as a submission protocol.
> 
> Before I restate the arguments made previously, can someone explain why is
> this now being advanced as a Proposed Standard?  I have seen no discussion
> on the IETF-Submit mailing list (at least not in the archives) hosted by
> IMC
> nor the IETF list explaining why this change was made.
