SMTPPATH LEN to include '<' , '>' or not..

2003-09-08 09:25:33

Hi,
I have a question regarding the maximum path length allowed in RCPT TO as
well as MAIL FROM.    RFC 2821 says, this limit is 256 bytes.
For e.g. if address is abc(_at_)def(_dot_)com

So if we include the '<' and '>' characters,  will the total length be 258.
Or is it 256 inclusive of these characters?

Regards
Dilip Menon
