yep, TCP has nothing to do with this.

dynamic assignment of mail relays is the subject of a number of IETF
drafts from various and sundry zero configuration efforts; none have
ever gotten very far, not even, i think, to the first leg of the
standards track.

what Paul is describing simply doesn't exist in any standards based
environment that i'm aware of.

Paul has already been given the clues he needed to solve his problem;
unfortunately, he's already made up his mind and isn't listening.
