It is important to note that NOTHING requires ANYONE to comply with an RFC (pedantically a "Request for Comments"), however, the "cooperative interoperability" the net has enjoyed is based upon everyone having the same "rule book" and following it. A listing here simply implies that a site has chosen not to implement the conditions described in a particular RFC. It is, of course, up to other sites to decide for themselves whether or not they wish to communicate with sites that have not chosen to implement, say, RFC2142, and have a working "abuse@domain" address.
If you want a totally RFC compliant server, then you would have to follow all the RFC's to the letter. I have never heard of any software to load to do this - it's a manually process of insuring your server only has software that is RFC compliant.

I was told that if my server is not rcf complient then freeserve (uk) users cannot access it.

I know that they cannot access and i was trying to find a way round it.

Sounds like you should ask whoever told you that your server is not compliant the exact steps you need to take in order to make your server compliant. What inparticular do they not like about your server?

Or does this mean you already know why and are just looking for a work-around?

A work around would be nice if it is possable.

I think it'd be good first to find out what you have to fix ... then at least you'd have a concrete thing you're trying to work around.

There are a lot of RFCs out there. The Internet RFC/STD/FYI/BCP Archives list 3542 of them.
