  I have been hearing this, and decided to go back and read P4 again
  with respect to what you say.   I first note that you probably meant
  to say "accept netmail from all other systems" based on that PC that
  you filed -- but you did not say that, even though you are acting as
  if it is what you (and P4) mean.

  When I read P4 carefully, I do not see that it says that a non-PVT
  node must accept netmail from any system.  In contrast, what I read
  in several places is a variant on the phrase "be able to accept
  netmail".  There is a world of difference between "be able to
accept"
  and "must accept".

  Could you tell us what part of P4 justifies the interpretation of
  "must accept"?
