Re: Last Call: SMTP Service Extension for Content Negotiation to Proposed Standard

however the current proposal doesn't really give the sender a way
to specify that threshhold - unless, perhaps, the negotiation/conversion


The protocol is MTA-MTA.

indeed, but you said that the choice of whether to downgrade to LCD
is the sender's choice,

sending MTA.

ah, that's a slightly different thing.

but I really don't think it's a good idea to have MTA making value judgements
about the suitability of converting (whether or not using an LCD strategy)
in the absence of explicit direction from either sender or recipient.
