FYI: 2821bis examples
Hi, for info, IIRC some folks here have strong preferences
wrt example addresses in RFCs and elsewhere. On the SMTP
list Tony asked:

| John has said to me that he's always been willing to
| change the non-example domain names to 2606 example
| domain names.

| Now that the appeal is done and out of the way, do people
| prefer

| 1) none of the domain names be changed?
| 2) all domain names be changed, except Jon Postel's isi.edu
| and usc.edu references
| 3) all domain names be changed

| I would like to get a quick consensus call for this question.
| Please respond by Thursday, July 10.
.........^^^^^^^
That is "respond to his original message", *NOT* to this info.

I pick 4: Don't mutilate any examples that appeared in 2821. For new
examples either reuse domains from existing examples or use domains in
example.* based on what author believes is least confusing.

The notion that contuing to use domain names in 2821bis that have long
appeared in 2821 will cause damage to the internet is nonsense.

Replying here because I'm unwilling to try out the IETF's TMDA system.
Users of challenge/response systems get no mail from me.

LOL. This might be a variant of (1).

I'm not aware that the SMTP list or Tony use any C/R system.

Some IETF lists might do this for articles from unsubscribed
posters. Gmane does it for the first article from address x
in group y.

Works for me after an SPF PASS. Some days ago the confusing
listbox magic sent me about five on topic "webmaster" mails
posted in March to May "for moderation". All older than the
seven days for auto-expiration, "approve" didn't work.
