Doug Otis and I have been working up a proposal for a SMTP extension

I've looked into it, it's a bit odd, a kind of "blog and IM over SMTP",
but in theory it might work.  The underlying problem is already solved
by SPF as far as I'm concerned, if folks want another solution, why not.

There might be some privacy concerns, I'm not sure about it.
