Finally, I've thought a lot about SRS vs. SUBMITTER in the past few days.

SRS:
 ugly
 not exploitable
 requires upgrading only the MTAs which forward

SUBMITTER:
 pretty
 bounce forgery is exploitable
 requires upgrading ALL MTA which wants to receive a forward (much larger

  bounce forgery is exploitable (fixable with SES, btw.  See suggestion for

  requires upgrading (or downgrading :-) only the MTAs which forward

You forgot: 

    exploitable.
