Actually he has a point. Yes Frost is a message board, but that does not mean the methods and protocals it uses are not usefull for freemail. The original suggestion here was use a private channel for a users inbox. This probably could be done using a subset of the frost code without any sort of gui - just a smtp and pop server. Image you start Freemail. It generates an address for you to tell friends about and tells your to save a private key. You configure your email client to talk to local host and the freemail address. The private key becomes your pop and smtp password. Ed
