Philip suggested that I might get better interoperability w.r.t. error
reporting from Outlook if I turn off PIPELINING. I tried that this
afternoon, partly because of Philip's suggestion, and partly as an
experiment to see it was good at tripping up spammers and viruses
in conjunction with smtp_enforce_sync.

However it turns out that at least one MUA doesn't implement the protocol
correctly and fails to send email successfully, so I had to revert the
change. Bah, etc.

Perhaps it would be nice to only enforce_sync selectively, but sadly I
can't do that because the configuration setting isn't expanded.

Has anyone else experimented with these settings? Any interesting results?

Tony.
