The sad truth is, IETF didn't really even try to get the world to not use NAT, and the minimal efforts that were made in this direction were far too late. > Beyond that, we already have the revsrsible address rewriting hack I > invented for the mailing lists which turns steve@aol.com into > steve=40aol.com@dmarc.ietf.org.

Every deployed hack (including NAT) is ugly but "works" in isolation, provided you only consider the use cases you care about. It's when multiple hacks (each with limited applicability) are layered that the problems crop up. And yet, quite often the proposed solutions are to add more ugly hacks that are themselves of limited applicability. Keith
