I am making the following changes for the last (next) version of Sieve.
I am going to review the document and try and find any last lingering
editorial problems and send the document off for IESG review (uh,
hopefully it's still lingering there, the RFC editor certainly doesn't
seem to have it yet).

Here are the changed sections (aside from typos).  If you don't like
them, please let me know.  If you like them, please disagree with all
the people that don't like them.

2.4.2.3. Addresses

A number of commands call for email addresses, which are also a subset
of strings.  These addresses must be compliant with [IMAIL].
Implementations are required to parse as specified by the "mailbox"
definition in section 6.1, not as "address" is specified in that
section.  "Group" syntax MUST NOT be used (if multiple addresses are
requierd, use a string-list).

  ^^^^^^^^

Are you punting on the fact that "mailbox" allows "route"?  Or do you
want to restrict "mailbox" to:

mailbox = addr-spec
        / phrase "<" addr-spec ">"


I don't care either way, but since we had discussed this in the past, I
just wanted to clarify.  That being said, I think the text above is
unambiguous and I am comfortable with it (just have to change the start
state in the cmu-sieve yacc grammar :^).
