Decentralisation can be a problem. SMTP mail is designed to be
decentralised, but anyone attempting to use it in that way, these days,
is likely to fall foul

For years I've contemplated starting an IM service. The idea keeps coming back
to mind as all the big boys keep dropping out (or the technical equivalent of
dropping out), frustrating their users (including myself).
I cannot, possibly, be the first person to have this thought, right?
