But its a technical issue !!! email SMTP example : SMTP has lots of different MESSAGE TYPES. e.g send and reply are just two types.
There are mandatory functions which must be implemented and there are optional functions which do not need to be implemented, but may prove to be useful in certain situations. If one of the options was for instance a client request to obtain internal Server details. This could be deemed a security issue. However, the Client and Server may have this functionality on by default which poses a security risk. The fixup protocol scans certain well known protocols and only allows the core functionality to work, removing the security risk.
