The FCIX whitepaper advises the use of 'MAIL FROM:' authentication for
the mntner object: ** this is NOT recommended ** and *not* a best
practise. Please use GPG or one of the hash-based authentication
methods.

Kind regards,

Job

ps. I would like to urge both RADB and ALTDB to upgrade to the free open
source & modern IRRd v4 product which brings many security advantages
for both the IRRd operator and IRRd user. http://irrd.net/
