Yes, I also had problems with smtp, so I thought this one was actually
not sent. You have another one with a proper Ack :).

I think this is not actually possible in practice, but what if
bret->status == BLKIF_RSP_OKAY and the bret from s2 actually had
BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP, wouldn't we loose the EOPNOTSUPP by
unconditionally setting BLKIF_RSP_ERROR?

Should s->status be able to store all the possible return codes from the
response (OK/ERROR/NOTSUPP)?

Roger.
