Remarks

The longest path SMTP admits: a local part of 64 octets, the at-sign, and a domain of 255. An address beyond it is refused rather than dropped, which is the opposite of what extraction does with one it met in a header — nobody chose that address, while this one an owner typed and is entitled to be told about.
