(keep in mind, each sender gets a unique password from the receiver, this can be stored in the address book along with the email address itself).
I'd like to see the I-D which explains how this is going to work, with particular attention to (a) how the passwords will be exchanged without using email (b) how it's going to handle the O(N^2) scaling and (c) how it's going to work in an environment with at least a hundred million compromised systems -- that is, systems that are now owned by the enemy, who thus also owns the contents of all the address books stored on them...including all the passwords. I think once these issues are addressed it will be only a small matter of implementation to convince everyone to swiftly move to a different protocol for mail. ---rsk
