I'd go back to 1989 and shoot the author of RfC 1123 5.3.6 (a).
If he pleads "not guilty, all the same as GOD said in STD 10",
I'd shoot the author of RfC 1123 5.2.6 "SHOULD NOT source
route". Maybe he then says "but it never really worked, it's
useless". Then I feed him with terabytes of forged MAIL FROM
bounces and beam him up to the "bounces-to" parallel universe.
While I'm at it (1989) I visit the future author of RfC 2821
for a nice long chat.
