The <maxmessagesize> has been supported by JAMES since Matthew Pangaro and
Charles Benett got it into CVS almost three years ago.
As for fast-fail, the principle behind James is to implement what people
need, and there have been a lot of requests for fast-fail. Furthermore,
fast-fail becomes necessary in order to deal with the Internet worms in any
sort of high volume environment.
We've had various approaches for fast-fail, but didn't really like any of
them so we limited them to what seemed really necessary and useful. Now we
have an approach that is consistent with the rest of James. That should
appear be in a relatively early build of v3.
