> Is the Tbird behavior different with tempfail and permanent fail? I believe so. I think it gives up completely if any RCPT fails for any reason (4xx or 5xx). IMO, this is the right thing to do. How should a MUA react to a tempfail? Prompt the user to keep trying? Keep trying by itself? (Then you've implemented half of an MTA.) Submission servers should do their best not to tempfail, IMO.
