You told that *anyone who does not have an "open" email relay is in
breach of this RFC*. I'm asking you to prove it.
RFC 821 SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL August 1982
3.6. RELAYING
[..]
... The receiver-SMTP may accept or reject the
task of relaying the mail in the same way it accepts or rejects
mail for a local user.
[..]
Just tell me *where exactly* RFC 821 enforces receiver-SMTP to accept
and deliver every message. Which part of this RFC is receiver-SMTP
breaching when it rejects to "open relay" some message?
