That is a big if. No shortage of broken software / appliance etc products put out by different vendors Even if they do introduce patches for current versions or release new versions that dont backscatter to spoofing viruses, there's a huge installed base of crap old versions of this stuff. So, fixing that lot is not going to be easy. Sending BATV signed email out and accepting bounces to BATV'd addresses does tend to make sense in a limited set of use cases (IF you send email only from a single server / set of servers, and control the sending client . geeks with pine on *bsd or webmail service providers, or mailing list services that anyway do VERP) Upgrade MTAs around the world? Which MTAs around the world receive bounces bound for your domain, and to your servers? And which MTAs send legitimately send out email with your domain? If you are SURE that all that is covered, try BATV and it will work rather well for you. If you aren't - dont bother about it. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian (ops.lists () gmail com)
