I see non-tolerant James to strange mails that receive, compared with
Sendmail, Postfix, QMail, IIS,... perhaps James is wonderful to send,
but not to receive. ("be conservative in what you send, be liberal in
what you receive").
I agree, but the problem sometimes is not that we are non-tolerant, but
that we lack a feature: in this case 8bitmime.
Your client probably IGNORE the fact that not all servers support
8bitmime and sends 8bit content anyway. (from the current information
this is what I understood)
- reject mails goes against my religion. (As programmer I like the well
done things -and RFCs-, but like sysadm my mission is that the things
work, beyond if he is good or bad -while he is safe-)
Sometimes rejecting it is better than corrupting it and let the sender
ignore this. I agree on relaxing when it is clear what you have to do
and the "workaround" does not introduce ANY possible problem.
Btw, this is sterile discussion. Let's talk about specific problem and
the specific solution (on the other tree of this thread).
