It's perfectly understandable, and doesn't distract from your main
point that the circumstances (ARIN effectively mandating MAIL-FROM=20
for authentication) is patently unacceptable and shouldn't require any
more effort than pointing such out in email. I did not perceive the
situation initially, and hence sent Jeff Wheeler off to said suggestion=20
form. As noted, we're now looking into how to fix the IRR authentication
situation and will report back asap.
