Setup: OpenBSD5.7 with default OpenSMTPD
Changes: Firewall, One user, Nothing radical

Working fine:
SMTP dispatch
from second OpenBSD5.7 with OpenSMTPD (VM#2)
to receiving OpenBSD5.7 with OpenSMTPD (VM#1)

Problem:
Alien client (VxWorks-based device) won't connect
but clearly speaks to OpenSMTPD

Server Maillog message:
500-Pipelining not supported (... from OpenSMTPD...)

I've read that OpenSMTPD doesn't support pipelining.

Is this something that:

1) Will never be implemented in OpenSMTPD:
OpenSMTPD frowns on pipelining and doesn't like
clients that don't follow the RFCs strictly
i.e. They ignore "NO. I don't do pipe-lining"
That's a fair point of view ;-)
(Sendmail for this VxWorks device, then... and, at
least, for the time being)

2) Is available through some OpenSMTPD add-on package

3) Is on the roadmap for OpenSMTPD and
I'll just have to wait... unless I write it myself ;-)

By the way - found OpenSMTPD setup quick and easy

NICE WORK ;-)

Mike
