This list hasn't seen any traffic since May 2005, if that tells you
anything. If there's any current, ongoing work on IM2000, I am not aware
of it.

Personally, I am working on a mail system (as part of a PhD thesis)
which bears important similarities to Dan Bernstein's IM2000 proposal,
but looks nothing like the IM2000 implementations that have been
discussed here. I'm hoping to release something workable as free
software when I'm done (within one year).

I'd be interested to hear about any other "revolutionary" approaches
anyone is taking to the mail system. Most of the work I've encountered
in my research (aside from IM2000) takes more of an "evolutionary"
approach to the problem -- attempting to retro-fit spam-resistance back
into SMTP. The few radical proposals I know of have, like IM2000, gone
nowhere in practice.
