Definitely agree with you that the benevolent few who produce FOSS deserve admiration especially when wrestling with the esoteric aspects of POP, IMAP and SMTP.
No doubt, I was thankfully using mostly FOSS components but I rolled my own SMTP solution a while back and it was hard to get right, especially dealing with how the format deals with multipart etc.
