True.
BTW. This is getting off topic.
True.
Regarding RFC compliance - Its a good thing. But it is more important to
get your mail. PHB's don't accept or understand the idea that its MS's
fault. If they can send to everybody but your mail server, your to blame.
Not true, at least not in my opinion. Yes, email is important, but not
so important that we should sacrifice the RFC's that got us here. I have
yet to see an email containing urgent instructions for a brain surgeon -
we're not talking life or death here...
I also refuse to make it easy for the sloppy, anarchist developers of
the world to propagate their crap. Such misdeeds can only lead to
complete chaos and system meltdown. I'm sure there is an expert in Chaos
Theory out there that can back me on this - or correct me... :-)
I have yet to see a situation where:
1. Someone did not accept my explanation for a problem being "somewhere
else", and they should be told of it..
or
2. I was technically unable to fix the server, or the client, to correct
something not covered by #1, above.
