I was reminded that the obtuse SMTP daemon was doing this in 1997.
Should be good prior art to bust this patent if anyone cares.
Pls send me links/references on this published prior to Jan 2000. I, more
than anyone else (at least right now) have more motiviation to continually
test the patent against prior art.
I think it's a little late to ask people to do the prior art searches
that you should have done five years ago.
Anyone who's sued under this patent will of course get the references
on request.
R's,
John
