These sources say that 'not relaying by default' was implemented
on suggestion by Paul Vixie. They do not talk about checking MAPS
(feature('dnsbl')) at all.

And how, may I ask then, is the MAPS RSS implemented? By which
mechanism, and whose default server was specified?
Historically, the first feature was called (rbl), now superceded
by (dnsbl), and was introduced in sendmail rel. 8.9.1 (1998).

Okay then, perhaps you can come up with evidence to the contrary.
BTW Mathias, we did have a few users from Singapore. They were
trying to avoid their country's strict censorship, and were relaying
their private correspondence through our server, although they had
accounts there. I wonder why? Perhaps it was the fear of rattan
canes that made them do it...
