SERVE OFF is not a command for owners. Servers are servers and lists are
lists. And the user may not be on your list at all but only some local
distribution.

I'd not say "punish" but otherwise - exactly that. I have been through
such discussions a number of times and I don't care whether it's a single
host not conforming to standards or MCIMail or the .d400.de domain.
Obviously it's already a pain in the neck - how far should tolerance go in
your opinion?
If our nameserver is fishy do you think we could successfully argue: " you
can't punish the users in our domain just because the admin goofed,
doesn't care, or is unreachable so whenever you get rejections from our
domain then simply stop SMTP, restart your nameserver, ... "
