My understanding was that it was a qpopper feature rather then a extended
RFC feature. Either way the problem is that mail clients don't support
this feature, so in order for this to be viable for most ISP's we must wait
for mail programs to allow use of this feature.
I don't know of one email client that supports this feature (I don't
believe that even Eudora does, although Qpopper does).
The requirement of needing an account on the mail server to send mail
messages would solve the vast majority of unauthorised mail relaying by
spammers almost over night (if we can get it widely implemented).
