>>yeah!  no more smtp, just import from people you like.

even people you like might not like you enough to want to give you
access to more than you need to send mail to a specified user (and
it's not necessarily true that just because you can import you can
cpu).

one approach is to have a service that presents a mail-sending name space
through which mail can be sent, and the name space can
then be exported, with authentication.  it also insulates sender and
recipient from detailed knowledge of current mbox conventions.

for reading mail, import seems fine, because given authentication it's presumably the
owner (or someone authorised by the owner) that's reading it.
