  It's the most complete proposal so far.  It's reasonable to use it
as a base for a combined proposal.

  My concerns with it are that it doesn't clearly address the warnings
given in section 7 of RFC 2821 It discusses the issue, but I believe
that it should specifically reference & quote that section, and
address the issues raised in it.

  It also needs some text on dealing with attacks via non-existent
domains.  e.g. "MAIL FROM: [email protected]".  What does
the proposal do, and how does using the proposal affect the stability
of the email system?
