Subject: minor change to smtpd.y (and yesterday)
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 01f8684a-eac8-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

yesterday i couldn't receive mail from 3mail.3com.com, since
smtpd rejected the `mail from:' as having a syntax error.
the grammar in /sys/src/cmd/upas/smtp/smtpd.y is taken directly from
RFC 821, but (it turns out) RFC 1123 section 2.1 makes a blanket change
to all applications regarding host name formats, thus requiring a change to
the rfc821 grammar (but without specifying the change).

here are some diffs; the line numbers might not agree -- i haven't
got the CDROM online at the moment.

cpu% diff `{yesterday -940501 smtpd.y} .

when first doing that diff, i discovered that several of the diagnostics
in /rc/bin/yesterday are not sent to the standard error; here are the diffs for that:
