I am coming a bit late on this, however, I believe that qmail is doing
the appropriate thing. In the draft, it merely states that it must be
received and parsed, which I believe is being done. It is being parsed
enough to determine that it is invalid. I don't believe that the
author meant that receive == queued so it is being parsed as per the
draft and then rejected because it the receiving email is
non-conformant.
