> It would be useful to have James always announce its ability to handle the AUTH commands, even when it is not required to authenticate, in order to have the sender optionally authenticate if able to do it.
> This way, if the sender MUA (or MTA) authenticates, the James server is able to SMIMESign the message because the sender user is known, independently of being or not in an authorized subnet and from becoming authorized to relay or not.
