<P><FONT SIZE=2>What is a RAPNAP client? A quick search on google doesn't turn up much.</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>For list subscribers who aren't familiar with David's pay2send project... The short summary, is that it is an email service which solves the problem of receiving undesired email by creating a default toll/filter on unsolicited email. I.e., when the recipient puts a token price on the act of sending them an email, spam finally has an associated cost for the spammer. Plus, receiving email becomes a potential mechanism for putting pennies in your own jar :) </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I've finally replaced sendmail with qmail at home. I think a grounding talk on how internet email works with a side on spam filtering would be an interesting presentation in itself. And could be used as a foundation for a presentation on the architecture of pay2send and a discussion of the problems it solves. There is so much detail to be covered... that if you'd be willing... it'd probably be easier for us lay-people to follow in 2 installments instead of 1 whirlwind tour ;)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>However you decide to do it, I'd love to hear more about your progress with pay2send.</FONT>
