Thanks,
  I'm looking over it and the section reads more like 821 than 1123.
I'm not trying to beat a dead horse - I'm just trying to make sure my 
interpretation of the "rules" are correct. Right now, Spam has everyone trying 
things of which some seem to break MTA's in a legitamate fashion while other 
methods are in a way vigalantism (if that's word)...
How do you politely tell another admin he's broken something against an RFC 
when there's room for personal inflection of what the RFC is recommending.
Anyway - thanks for everyone's input.
