Re: [Evolution] HELO respose error: (again)



fre, 2002-08-23 kl. 17:37 skrev Peter Williams:

During an SMTP conversation, if an EHLO fails, then evolution should
drop to HELO, and not report any errors.

This is the way it's coded now. Maybe that bit of the code is broken at
the moment.

You should file a bug at bugzilla.ximian.com

!

RFC 2821:

   Contemporary SMTP implementations MUST support the basic extension
   mechanisms.  For instance, servers MUST support the EHLO command even
   if they do not implement any specific extensions and clients SHOULD
   preferentially utilize EHLO rather than HELO.  (However, for
   compatibility with older conforming implementations, SMTP clients and
   servers MUST support the original HELO mechanisms as a fallback.)
   Unless the different characteristics of HELO must be identified for
   interoperability purposes, this document discusses only EHLO.

The usefulness of RTFM is vastly overrated.
