Hm. Some people might wish to use a different rhs than their fqdn.
For example, a dialup user Joe might be able to use
joe.dialup.provider.net as the rhs of a message id, but this need not
be a fqdn known to DNS.
On the one hand, this makes it clear that the rhs of a message id is
not always the same as the fqdn. On the other hand, these dialup
users probably don't HAVE a fqdn... And if they did, they might as
well use that. Hm.
Thoughts?
