Mike,


AD>> Are there NO other methods which a mobile user may use to send mail?

MR> What about VPN?  What about stunnel?

those are not mail protocols.

MR>   What about smtp-auth?

smtp-auth is an option to smtp.  so, it is smtp.

MR>   What about
MR> Courier's "outbox" for IMAP over SSL?

I don't know what you are referring to, but it is not an Internet
standard for posting mail.


MR>   Heck, what about ssh tunnels?

not a mail protocol.


MR> Perhaps I'm not understanding your objection?

possibly.
