and make it quick ;)

SMTP is an insecure out of date mess, that *really* needs to be changed,  If 
it's still around in 10 years, i'm goign to shoot myself :p

my personal view is non-interactive XML based communication sitting on HTTP(s) 
using public key crypto is the answer to almost all of SMTP's problems.

WebDAV could also easily replace IMAP and POP3.

just my finatical views, though ... :)
