Title : The SIEVE mail filtering language - reject extension

This memo updates the definition the SIEVE mail filtering language
(RFC <<3028bis>>) "reject" extension, originally defined in RFC 3028.
A Joe-job is a spam run forged to appear as though it came from an
innocent party, who is then generally flooded by the bounces,
Message Disposition Notifications (MDNs) and messages with
complaints. The original Sieve "reject" action defined in RFC 3028
required use of MDNs for rejecting messages, thus contributing to
the flood of Joe-job spam to victims of Joe-jobs. This document
updates the definition of "reject" to require rejecting messages
during the SMTP transaction (instead of accepting them and then
sending MDNs back to the alleged sender) wherever possible, thereby
reducing the problem.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sieve-refuse-reject-04.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
