Made me laugh, can you imagine how upset Microsoft fans would be if Unix
servers which I guess 95 % of email travels through and Apache servers
running more than 60% of the web refused to pass on emails generated by
any client running on an M$ platform or refused requests from IE
browsers.

I get enough laughs refusing mail from people who cannot accept bounce
messages.  I have more than thirty people a day trying to post to
mailing lists they are subscribed to refused because they will not
accept bounce messages.  (Most of these are normally Hotmail with full
mailboxes).

Have fun
