As you say, several (not all) M$ products.

Ipswitch iMail is heavily broken

Novell's Novonyx has this brilliant idea of retrying on the backup MX if
it gets a 5xx from the primary MX. [Alan Thew mentioned it on this list]

Checkpoint Firewall and Cisco PIX (also Raptor Firewall) have utterly
broken code listening on port 25.
