Relay Testing

[Michael T. Babcock]

I just decided to manually run the RSS relay tests (telnet to
mail-abuse.org, and it will start a relay test on the machine that connected
to it).  qmail, of course, didn't relay any messages, but I was wondering
why it gave one response it did:

Relay test 7
>>> MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[216.168.105.33]>
<<< 250 ok
>>> RCPT TO:<"nobody%mail-abuse.org">
<<< 250 ok
>>> RSET
<<< 250 flushed

Why the '250 ok' ?  Why would it accept "nobody%mail-abuse.org"?  Maybe I
need to re-read the RFCs?
