After examining Microsoft's CallerID proposal in more detail, it is my
opinion that any system which attempts to reject/return mail after the DATA

Maybe it's just me, but I am not sure what you mean here.
There are two entirely different situations:
both: The sending server issues DATA, receives "250 go ahead", sends
its message and ends with CRLF.CRLF
#1: The receiving server then rejects the message
#2: The receiving server accepts the message, then sends a bounce
(probably as the result of scanning the body)
The first situation I call "after DATA", the second situation I
call "after accepting the message".
I base that opinion on the thousands of attempted bounces that we have

To me this looks like you are referring to #2 yet you are saying
you refer to #1. Please be explicit.
