You "don't know what you don't know" about how email is actually handled. I do know that the entire e-mail system is a kludge of outdated bits and pieces of very simple software that were thrown in place with the belief that no one would ever abuse their crappy system. Guess what! They were morons, and the system is a piece of crap. As far as implementing new protocols, the longer they wait, the longer it will take to make the change. There should be little or no problems to implement a new system along side of the old one. Make it obvious at a glance that any e-mail address uses the new or old protocols, so you know which to send. Even better, develop better E-mail clients to automatically direct it to the proper system. If a user doesn't want to use the old protocol, they shouldn't be forced to. ISPs and other mail providers who refuse to implement new protocols would die off fairly fast, and it will be a moot point. Just like the planned changes to provide more IP addresses, the current E-mail and usenet delivery systems are broken, and all aspects of the internet, e-mail and usenet must be fixed before it collapses like a 75 year old piece of machinery that spends more time being welded back together or machining repair parts that haven't been made in 45 years., than turning out salable product. -- Michael A.
