the opportunity to name and shame them?

I just can't get behind making a sysadmin's life difficult like this. These problems are hard to diagnose, get dealt with during off-hours, involve users getting very upset and having it happen numerous times before the sysadmin realizes he needs to flip some non-compliance flag in it's mail server. I just think this would be a way to kill James' marketshare.


The bar is already really really high.

Don't I know it. So lets exert pressure against it getting worse.

Making a server unusable to most people kills adoption, so we're just leaving ourselves isolated purists. Believe me, I'd like James to be adopted to the point that some other mail client/server author would reference how James handles something, but I don't see us getting there with this approach.
