Weeelll ... let's just say that I don't quite agree with you on all of
those points.

While I haven't encountered any problems with nmh's SMTP code, if you know
of problems with it I'll be glad to fix them.
Just to pick a random example, if you get a 4xx response back from the
server you're supposed to retry later, and I bet we don't do that :-)
Another one: I don't think we do MX lookups on the server name given in
mts.conf, which is also a MUST from RFC1123.
