   Why not mesh up Peernixens instead of joining Pubnixens?  Federating   
   with digital neighbours.  So most of your stuff would stay at home and   
   only what you want to publish appears somewhere else.  Maybe limit this   
   to SMTP and NNTP in the beginning and allow MIME posts in some   
   hierarchies.  A safe backbone[0] would take some stress from all the   
   other protocols, so none of them would need to have SSL/TLS baked in.   
   In such a context mail would be a lightweight service again.
