.....which brings us straight back to the MAILCAP debate about how to get
more info about a mail recipient than his address.
I remember a BOF that I was just skimming past on this subject in Chicago;
care to give us a capsule summary?
(IMHO, a working mailcap has the potential to dramatically change the
playing field of the email world wrt deployment of new features; can that
be part of why it's so slow to get anywhere....?)
