``General sniping type comments''? Are you saying that you don't want
to hear about violations of the required Internet standards?

RFC 1123 didn't change the 821 syntax here. If you're looking at the
``MAIL FROM: <>'' example, that's a typo; examples don't override
requirements.

Anyway, a robust system will accept it with or without the space, but
not every system is robust. Be conservative in what you send.
