It is all about value. With an API into IMAIL
I could do so much that it would be worth rewriting history if I had to do
it. Of course it is for what I could get out of it... A lot!
Imagine being able to build a certificate (digital signing and decryption)
apparatus into your ASP mail gateway using a remote certificate store and then
just calling.
<% IMAIL.GetHeaders %>
to see the messages.
then
<% IMAIL.ReadMsg(MsgId) %>
to read the specific message.
or [here comes my big dreams]
<%
newVar = IMAIL.ReadMsg(MsgId)
MailString = MyClass.Decrypt(CertificateId,
newVar)
Response.Write(MailString)
%>
to read in, decrypt and then display it
decrypted...
Do something cool like that! Do that
while under SSL and you begin to see how this could suddenly sell into defense
contracts, health care systems, etc... Mucho Money Man! That is
where I want to play next.

PS Would also be very nice to put a
rotating ad on the screen where someone spends two minutes (message from Mom)
wouldn't it?
