Re: Latest proposal re HELO checking: make HELO tests optional

My "problem" is the observation that proposals which require wide-scale
change to an existing semantic find themselves trying to overcome a
particularly massive barrier to adoption, and rarely overcome it.

You say it's a change. This is moot. Perhaps you'll change your mind again.
Anyway, as others (wiser than me) have pointed out, it's not strictly
relevant. Consider SPF and the other LMAPs as black boxes evaluating some
function of the source IP/return path duple. No new semantics here. No
"problem".
