It wouldn't be at all hard to write a think cash feedback system which
used SMTP. You'd just add a think cash authentication stage to the file
insertion layer and then any think cash authenticated key index insertion
would pop up a think cash dialog. It's somewhat analagous to authorization
realms for web sites. You point your browser at the web site. It
interrupts you with a login/password dialog. You type it in. It continues
on as normal.

I'm considering integrating optional think cash support into IndexClient
as it seems popular among the freesite publishers. Integrating it into
IndexClient would of course make it automatically integrated into EOF
SMTP. The question is how to come up with system which is generalized
enough to implement in a generic way and how to indicate whether an index
uses think cash authentication or not so that the library will know when
to use it.
