Welcome on the mailist. Easiest is to meet up to add to the discussion
over beer or food or whatever.

The "DEEMail" is a design in progress. My main headache with it is for
how to avoid abuse and how to do so in some way a little more clever
than just throttling the uploads/downloads... At the moment it could be
swamped with anti-socials dumping their backups on it!

Interesting and a good idea. The way things are going, that is getting
to be ever more likely necessary... :-(

The "DEEMail" goes a step further in that the entire email is encrypted,
including all the headers. And yes, yet the mail is still deliverable... :-)


Cheers,
