Subject: RFC2821 Implementation Survey


> Greetings.
> 
> The IETF will shortly be considering elevating the revised SMTP specification 
> RFC 2821, to the second-level standards status of DRAFT.
> 
> A requirement for this is to produce information about implementations of the 
> protocol specification.  It is therefore essential that we assemble a credible 
> collection of information about actual development and interoperability 
> testing -- and deployment is a form of testing -- for RFC 2821.
> 
> Because SMTP is a rich and widely-deployed protocol, the goal of this query is 
> to ask for enough information to be useful, but not to place undue burden on 
> responders by asking them to do a massive checklist.
> 
> It is assumed that most implementations of RFC 2821 have implemented all of 
> its required (MUST) features and probably a fair number of its optional 
> (SHOULD or MAY) features.
> 
> This survey does NOT cover any specifications outside of the RFC2821 document 
> itself.  No enhancements, options, or the like.
> 
> Please take some time to complete the following questionnaire and send me a 
> private note with your responses.  I will assemble them into a public report:
> 
> Please respond by 10 December 2007.
