I know there have been other opinions posted about this but it makes some
sense with people who block ICMP without understanding the ramifications.
I've also had a nagging feeling I read this somewhere else recently.
OK, this is funny. In searching, I read it on comp.mail.sendmail last also
posted by Yizhar.
However, I've also read similar recommendations with exim and VPN especially
so it's not really the craziest thing I've ever heard. I'm interested in
hearing more. I mean 8 bytes every 1300 bytes rather than every 1500 bytes
just doesn't seem like that big a deal if it fixes real-world problems.

Or the logic again rephrased:
Better be on the safe side -
don't use MTU of 1500 when you know that it can cause problems with some
hosts, even if your connection does support it.
