Re: SMTP adaptation conflicts with other WGs

I chatted with Eric Burger (Co-Chair of lemonde) a while back on this 
topic, and the feeling was that there's no overlap or no major one. 
Looks like lemonade is focused mainly on IMAP.

[I've copied Eric on this email. Eric - do you hav any thoughts?]

The fax working group was mentioned several times, so we'll also have 
to have a look there.

I would suggest we polish our proposed re-charter, and then work with 
Ted and the Chairs of the respective group to make sure that there's 
no overlap.
