I've just been reading the SMTP extension for message size declaration in RFC 1870. It looks like a useful enhancement, though I presume that it hasn't been widely implemented yet on servers. However, it doesn't look as if it would be that difficult to add, and it would be particularly useful if the KA9Q SMTP server could support it: if other clients used it (particularly the punts), it might circumstances provide a bit of a shield against mail-bombs. It would be handy, too, to have it in the KA9Q client. Malcom, any chance of this working its way onto your wish-list? (which I'm sure is already v. crowded ..)
