One merely needs to disconnect without using QUIT, if the POP server is RFC

That's a big 'if'. RFC2821 mandates the acceptance of 'MAIL FROM:<>', but

useful
to define a macro to submit the site to www.rfc-ignorant.org.
It used to be that protocols only needed be error-resistant. Nowadays, it
seems
they need to be treachery-resistant too.....
