Hi all,

+1 for the K/V solution. Adding JSON dependencies does not seem a good idea to me too :-)

Cheers,
Max

There's no way I would add JSON support to exim.

I'll chime in with no plans to add a JSON dependency to Postfix.
The current KV proposal is fine.  I would have avoided the
superfluous ":" characters after the keys:

        mx foo.example.com

rather than:

        mx: foo.example.com

but I don't care enough to make this an issue.  The authors are
free to drop the unnecessary ":" if they agree.

The K/V would then be a sequence of lines, with one K/V per line,
with each line of the form:

     <KEY><whitespace><VALUE><optional trailing whitespace><EOL>

<EOL> is whatever goes for EOL in HTTP text/plain content types,
which IIRC is <CRLF>.  Client implementations MAY be liberal and
also allow <LF>, but server implementations SHOULD only use <CRLF>.
