Sections 4.6 and 4.7 probably need the most scrutiny.

How does this relate to BDAT verb, a.k.a. "CHUNKING" extension ?
Use "BDAT nnn LAST" in place of data-dot, and collect PRDR replies after
all message content has been sent over ?

Yeah, I'm hesitant to start documenting all of the different options
(ATRN, ETRN, BDAT, ...), but the basic principle is that PRDR responses
can be used wherever you would normally issue a message acceptance
response, so in the case of BDAT it can be used as an alternative to the
response to data after BDAT LAST.
