LOL!  What "small power company" got Cisco Systems (named cisco systems at
the time) to implement the VINES IP protocol stack in their routers?

Don't let HIM make you feel that way, allow ME to.  But take it from me,
VINES was a fine product, but, Banyan, like DEC, was saddled with a CEO who
didn't listen to his customers.  Remember, Jim Allchin came from Banyan.

The [EMAIL PROTECTED]@* format is a proprietary implementation unless there is 
an SMTP RFC
lurking out there that I have somehow missed. Banyan may be superior, but
the argument you've presented here fails to demonstrate that in the least.
It's nominally as entertaining as those who complain that Exchange doesn't
implement plus addressing. A solution to provide similar functionality has
been offered. Use it or don't. 

If you want to tell us all the TRUTH, drink your coffee and make a coherent
argument. At the moment you sound like a crank and have thus far only
managed to reduce my opinion of Banyan Vines.
