This is yet another topic to bother Hunter with (which is not extraordinarily high on my wish list, but...). Are there any plans to support any form of user interface of commands for the SMTP_Server in MX? One of the feature supported by quite a few sites is the VRFY command (as well as HELP), which can be reached via TELNETting to port 25 and handling things interactively. This is nice for verifying things for list owners (among other things). Presently, MX doesn't appear to support anything along these lines. Has anyone overcome this, have I missed something somewhere, is this to be supported in future a release?
