Hello, Thank you for listing these requirements. Based on these, IMHO email-service is not the right solution, and we need to look at a more complete solution like EDS/Camel, plus Bluetooth MAP/PBAP support. Included Srini for the discussion.
We need to start simple, first get account setup/sync for car users and managing seat-user mappings. We also need to update https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Multi-user_Architecture#Multi_User_use_cases Apart from these, basic email use cases could also be solved using web apps/stacks.
