A BUGNOTE has been added to this bug. ====================================================================== http://dbmail.org/mantis/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0000070 ====================================================================== Reported By: danweber Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: DBMail Bug ID: 70 Category: LMTP daemon Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 23-Aug-04 01:43 CEST Last Modified: 24-Aug-04 18:50 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: Fails to give reponse upon completion of rcpt Description: A responce is needed directly after rcpt command. Otherwise its incompatible with the rfc, and it also makes python hang. I stumbled upon this when I was adding lmtp support for mailbox2dbmail. ======================================================================
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ilja - 23-Aug-04 13:32 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AFAIK the client _should_ support pipelining, which means the respons comes after the DATA command, not after every RCPT command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- aaron - 23-Aug-04 18:11 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually, pipelining means that neither side should block or wait for anything during the RCPT stage. So both behaviors are slightly wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- danweber - 24-Aug-04 18:50 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Its good practice to send a response after rcpt. This way it allows a compatible smtp client to be used with it, like python.
