While it may seem suboptimal, this is reality for mail systems today.  
They do all sorts of things that are non-standard to get mail out the 
door.  And it happens in other areas, like NETCONF where the data model 
isn't standard.  In practice you can't manage a system with SNMP without 
enterprise MIBs...
