What a big load of bullshit.

Not only you have to entrust your entire communication to one company,
this company also uses propietary technology so you can never be sure
*how* secure this really is. Why does this use proprietary, "bleeding-
edge" technology instead of established, well-tested and known secure
technology? When it comes to security, bleeding-edge is *always* a bad
idea, because it cannot be tested well enough (otherwise it wouldn't be
bleeding-edge).

In addition to that the system accepts mail only from previously
approved addresses, meaning that you will practically devoid yourself of
Internet mail (how is a potential customer going to contact you?), which
is - as I might add - something that can be easily set up by oneself
with a whitelisting spam filter.

I really don't need this kind of spam on the list.
