interpreting uucp path on smtp acceptance stage
Matti,
RCPT TO:<somebody!@hotmail.com>
501 5.1.3 Path data: After a '!', a non alphanumeric element
According to RFC2821:
The standard mailbox naming convention is defined to be "local-
part@domain": contemporary usage permits a much broader set of
applications than simple "user names". Consequently, and due to a
long history of problems when intermediate hosts have attempted to
optimize transport by modifying them, the local-part MUST be
interpreted and assigned semantics only by the host specified in
the domain part of the address.
Maybe the part starting at rfc821scn.c line 978 should be made
at least optional?
