LOL! That's brilliant! Are you sure the mail server's a computer at all, and not some hapless person who Jackson employs to manually process email commands?

I doubt that will get enough support (it was tried before, though you probably know that).

Now that sounds much better, and much more likely to pass. Good for you, and thanks...it's long overdue. I look forward to seeing it.

I reckon Tom Crispin probably will. Maybe Rob Morley as well? Hopefully he'll support this proposal despite being part of the group which previously came up with a different one (which of course never made it to RFD).

Guy Chapman would like to but he "hasn't got time" (aka he doesn't think he'd be a popular moderator, and for once, he's right!)
