One shortcoming of SMTP that really needs fixing is this: When you
send e-mail to multiple recipients, it is not possible to indicate
successful delivery to some recipients, but not all recipients, after
the data phase.
Therefore, rather than just a numeric reply code, I think the protocol should
reply with headers of its own. For example, if the client says:
Deliver-To: <dfs(_at_)roaringpenguin(_dot_)com>
Deliver-To: <foo(_at_)roaringpenguin(_dot_)com>
then the server should be able to reply:
Delivery-Status: <dfs(_at_)roaringpenguin(_dot_)com> 200 Accepted
Delivery-Status: <foo(_at_)roaringpenguin(_dot_)com> 554 Unacceptable
content
Perhaps (probably) you intended this, but let's make it explicit.
