While testing xmail I encountered the following:

According to the following document Microsoft seems to use
the following syntax in their mail clients:
  MAIL FROM:[email protected]
  RCPT TO: [email protected]

The above forms of these commands are not recognized by xmail.
xmail gives error "501 Syntax error in parameters or arguments: (-31)"
xmail accepts only the following form:
  MAIL FROM:<[email protected]>
  RCPT TO:<[email protected]>

I don't know what the standard says, but I wouldn't be surpized if it's MS 
guilt.


BTW, does xmail not have a debugging log where all
commands exchanged with the other side get recorded,
ie. something like this:
