You're missing the main point - that sometimes things are done in ways
that are sub-optimal or even pessimal from the technical standpoint,
because some other consideration interferes. Yes, it *would* be nice if
everybody in the world
But if you really need a reason to convince someone who won't get their head
out of their . . . the sand -- You can probably cut in half the number of
viruses you have to scan if you reject invalid addresses up front, meaning
you can buy a smaller/ fewer virus scanner(s).
Which means the companies making them have absolutely no incentive to add
this feature.
