The LMAP proposals have their own mailing list at the IMC 
(http://www.imc.org/ietf-mxcomp/). At this point we should switch over 
the LMAP discussions to that list since the ASRG task has been done - we 
produced a discussion document and sent over the proposals together with 
that to the IETF. Unless the outcome of the BoF is to throw it back at 
the ASRG, I would venture to say that it will continue in the 
IETF-MXCOMP list or in a new WG. Its time to move on.

What I do want to discuss here, is different ways to deal with spam on 
the SMTP level OTHER than LMAP, which is what I tried to start with my 
message on different possibilities such as SMTP level passing of 
parameters, etc. This is something that should be done here, while the 
LMAP proposals can be discussed at the IMC.
