I also got a note on the Postfix list that exim has been implementing
this since at least 1998. (Apologies if that's code you were involved
with that they're talking about; can't tell the players without a
scorecard.)
as far as I know, they're completely separate.
feel free to forward my email address to anoyone who is fighting this.
(die patent holder scum!)
