Quoth David Nugent on Tue, 29 July: : : I think the point is spurious, nevertheless. You don't need an IP : to host internet mail. What you do need is a gateway and a valid : MX receiver for your domain. Absolutely right, my point was spurious as stated. I think the strongest cogent reformulation I have derived is the similar point that users of mail clients who are unable to control the setting of the MAIL FROM: field used by their gateway may be filtered by such a measure as was originally proposed.
