Quoting http://www.oceana.com/ftp/drafts/draft-murchison-lmtp-ignorequota-02.txt:

| If the LMTP server responds with code 250 to the LHLO command, and the response
| includes the LHLO keyword IGNOREQUOTA, then the server supports the Ignore
| Quota extension and will accept the extended ver sion of the RCPT command.


Your patch does not check the response to LHLO or do I miss something? It
uses "IGNOREQUOTA" even if the server does not accounce this feature. This
might work in some cases but is not conform to the draft and could be
harmful if the server does not understand IGNOREQUOTA and drops the input.
