Summary: This draft is basically ready for publication, but has nits
that should be fixed before publication.
Comments
--------

Note that since this was a bis, I mostly avoided comments that would
have led to massive rewrites of existing text.

Hi Sharon,
Thanks for the comments. I've quickly scanned through them (and I think they are mostly correct) and will only comment on two of them. Philip should comment on the rest.

4. In section 2.4.2.1, first paragraph it says "Implementations are
encouraged to use short-circuit evaluation in these cases." This seems
an arbitrary and somewhat obvious bit of implementation advice.

This text is trying to say that implementations may (even MAY) use short-circuit evaluation. I agree that this section might not be the obvious place for this kind of advice, but I think it is Ok. Unless you want to have a separate section stating implementation considerations?

12. In section 2.10.3, it says that "Implementations SHOULD NOT deliver
a message to the same mailbox more than once", but it doesn't indicate
under which circumstances it would be OK to do this.
This sentence is trying to say that implementations SHOULD support duplicate elimination when a message is delivered to the same mailbox, e.g.

fileinto "ABC";
fileinto "ABC";

should just behave as:

fileinto "ABC";

I can't think of any other case when duplicate elimination would be Ok.

Regards,
Alexey
