In Section 2.3.5 Domain Names (of -08):

Mechanisms for inferring FQDNs from local references (including partial names or local aliases) are outside of this specification and normally the province of message submission. Due to a history of problems, SMTP servers used for initial submission of messages SHOULD NOT make such inferences (Message Submission Servers [41] have somewhat more flexibility) and intermediate (relay) SMTP servers MUST NOT make them.

This text was moved from Section 5. Is this correct?

As per discussion at the January 2022 interim, the text looks fine, but some minor tweaks were suggested.

Due to a history of problems, SMTP servers used for initial submission of messages SHOULD NOT make such inferences (Message Submission Servers [41] have somewhat more flexibility) and intermediate (relay) SMTP servers MUST NOT make them.

In particular the removal of "used for initial submission of messages".
