ACK, we apparently agree on many things.  So what should
Wayne do in -01, submit it as is (~ -00 minus zone-cut),
or replace the 3*10 by an overall counter and limit X ?

Where X is at the very minimum 20 after Wayne verified
Radu's results, but probably more.  We really _need_ a
stable RfC very soon, it's a critical race at the moment:

If mailers are lacklisted by SC for backscatter, they
could try the easy way out and stop bounces completely.
That would be the death of SMTP, it's unreliable without
bounces, we really need SPF to save the "good" bounces.
