Some popular sites have problems with ecn.
Hotmail used to send a RST packet in response to any SYN that had ECN
enabled. I have just checked again and it seems that Hotmail have now fixed
this.
I have just re-enabled ECN on one of my servers. I had previously turned it
off because sending mail to hotmail.com was too important to lose. If I find
no more problems then I'll re-enable it on the rest of the servers.
I think that having ECN enabled on master is absolutely the right thing to
do. It may cause some inconveniance in the short-term, but it's necessary
for us to get such bugs shaken out and fixed.
