Folks,

I see a couple of folk suggesting that this thread has run its course.  I've 
been wondering about that.

Given how long the thread has been and how much senior email talent has 
contributed to it, I'm entirely unclear what it has accomplished or where it 
can or should go.

So I thought I'd ask.

Perhaps this has merely been an extended consulting session to help a few 
folk?

Given the amount of sage commentary has been posted, is there a document that 
should be produced?

Measuring actual costs (what is the resource cost of session setup and 
teardown, and of maintaining an open session, for well-implemented, mainstream 
MTAs?) would seem to be something to do before discussing such a document in 
much detail.

Cheers,
 Steve
