Oh, come on.  People on this  list  have  decades  of  experience  managing  and
implementing e-mail protocols, and you call their (free) help a  "massive  waste
of time"?  Stop being silly and realise that no initial proposal  is  completely
flawless.

As I keep urging you, define some goals (and as Grant said, start with  defining
the current problem), finish an initial standards document, and begin writing  a
reference implementation.  Or just define  some  of  the  core  algorithms  with
pseudocode.  I can almost-guarantee that you will start  realising  things  that
need changing almost immediately upon doing so.

Perhaps it is just me with my English sense of over-politeness, but I find  your
conduct to be remarkably audacious (and frankly rude) considering all  the  time
people are spending to help you.  ... And if you don't want this sort of on-line
discourse, why did you post on the list at all?
