I did an AltaVista search and a WAIS RFC search @ InterNIC, but couldn't find anything.
That's for the pointers, I found it: <draft-vixie-ops-stdaddr-01.txt>
1) thats a draft, not an RFC. 2) I believe that isn't the same document, either.
Go and look at the RFC index. It usually takes a couple of seconds to find the right document.

The only index I know if is http://ds.internic.net/ds/rfc-index.html If you know of another, maybe one that is searchable, I'd like to hear about it. Sifting through over 2000 RFCs for a keyphrase like "well-known email addresses" without a search tool takes more than a few seconds. Of course, in this particular case, that RFC is on the first page and has "mail" in the title: 2142 PS D. Crocker, "MAILBOX NAMES FOR COMMON SERVICES, ROLES AND FUNCTIONS", 05/06/1997.
