PUT should fail, as I would expect that the access method issues a DEBCHK.
Even EXCP should fail.

Now, if you are using STARTIO you don't need to deal with no stinking DCB.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
