We collectively did that 3 months ago. Just take all the cases we 
documented in "SMTP Uses case" thread and my "applications addition". And 
say were/how we will carry all of them.

I am not sure I have all the mails stored, so I cannot do it. We can also 
have a rerun. Whan we have all the list, we could send it on the general 
list calling for additional suggestions. This would might give some new 
ideas. We would get notice, probably interest and support.
