It would seem that if anybody ever got a copy of an "unscrupulous" email
and a company had that program installed, they could set themselves up
for litigation. Even though there are no addresses on it and a person
could show that it had to come from "that" company because of the
information contained therein. Or, do you think "they" could get away
with something because you could prove, for sure, who sent it.

I'm sure someone would be able to figure out a way to "spoof" an
account. Don't you. Nothing is ever foolproof.

Depending on the industry you're in, you could be prohibited from using
such a system... examples might be the Financial Services, Municipal
Government, Pharmaceuticals, etc.

It's a novel concept, but as Ginny said, sounds like a potential train
wreck if misused, and you can believe it will be misused.  From what I
read about it, sounds as if it can be used internally only, not over a
POP server, so I doubt you would have to concern yourself with external
attacks, unless someone figures a way to "spoof" and internal account
and then it's "off to the races", with no ability to identify the source
node!
